- "Striker Harry Kane was born on 28 July 1993 and was raised in Walthamstow, North London. Harry began his professional career at Tottenham Hotspur, joining the academy in July, 2009, and has since gone on to become one of the best strikers in world football.
After spending time on loan at Leyton Orient, Millwall, Norwich City and Leicester City, Harry started to emerge into the Spurs first team during the 2013/14 season and made 19 appearances in all competitions. He was handed his first Premier League start in Tottenham colours against Sunderland in April, 2014, and responded with a first top flight goal - the first of three in as many games.
It was in 2014/15, however, that he really shot to fame. Harry earned himself a first Spurs start in the Premier League against Stoke City on November 9, and he never looked back, going on to score 31 goals in 51 appearances in all competitions, thus becoming the first Spur to break the 30-goal barrier since Gary Lineker in 1991/92. He hit 21 goals in 34 Premier League outings - matching the totals of Gareth Bale (2012-13) and Teddy Sheringham (1992/93) - and became the first home-grown player to bag 20 league goals in a season since Mark Falco in 1984/85.
He hit new heights in terms of his goalscoring in 2017/18, reaching 30 goals in the Premier League and 41 in all competitions, including back-to-back hat-tricks at the end of 2017 against Burnley and Southampton to break Alan Shearer's record for the most Premier League goals scored in a calendar year with 39. Equalling the record for the most 'Premier League Player of the Month' awards in a single season by claiming his fifth and sixth prizes in September and December, 2017, he also began to work his way up the club's top 10 goalscorers of all time list and on 13 January, 2018, he became Tottenham Hotspur's record Premier League goalscorer, overtaking Teddy Sheringham with his 98th in a 4-0 home win against Everton.
He captained his national team for the first time in a World Cup qualifier away to Scotland in June, 2017, when he scored a stoppage-time equaliser in a 2-2 draw and was subsequently appointed England captain for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, where he claimed the tournament's 'Golden Boot' with six goals, as the Three Lions reached the semi-finals before eventually finishing fourth."
