The Bayern Munich star has scored 68 international goals, steadily approaching his goal of reaching 100 goals. Once achieved, he will become the nation's all-time leading goal scorer.
England captain Harry Kane reached his 100th cap this week and Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has heaped praise on to the striker.AdvertisementAdvertisementPickford was asked if Kane would retire as England greatest ever player and if he will slow down at any point in the future.
“It’s more than likely, definitely.
“I don’t think he’s in a rush to stop, so he’ll keep pushing and keep working hard. He’ll push that (100-goal) target, and it will be hard for people to chase. I think he will make sure that no one can be better than him.
“Over the week, we’ve had a lot of lads make their debuts. We’ve got Harry making his 100th cap, and he leads by example.
“All the lads buy into it — the new lads will look at him and (realise) that is the standard you are at, as an England player.
“When I came into the dressing room seven years ago, it was the same thing for me.
“He sets the standard and you have got to rise to it. He leads by example, and I don’t think that will change.”
The 31 year old has 32 more goals to go before he reaches his target but if he continues his goalscoring form he should reach that target in no time.
