Harry Kane's age and loyalty to Tottenham means he may never win the trophies he deserves ✒️ Heartbreak against France means time is running out, writes samcunningham ⚽ via iPaperSport FIFAWorldCup ENG
Yet not so much has been talked about Kane as one of the game’s greats stepping into the twilight, even though one more goal for England will make him his country’s outright greatest goalscorer. Even though he still has a chance of catching Alan Shearer’s outrageous Premier League all-time scoring record. Even though time is running out for Kane, too. To lift any trophy.
He has two EFL Cup runners-up medals. One Champions League runners-up medals. He has a Euro 2020 runners-up medal. He has a 2018-19 Nations League third place medal. It’s a barren shelf in his trophy cabinet, in stark contrast to his personal honours of a 2018 World Cup Golden Boot and three shiny Premier League ones to go with it.
Being a striker takes a toll on the body. Alan Shearer, perhaps the most similar player to Kane in the way he followed his heart rather than voraciously chased silverware, was 30 when he retired from international football. Wayne Rooney was 31.
