Harry Kane has told Prime Minister Rishi Sunak that he now has his sights set on Alan Shearer’s Premier League goal-scoring record after breaking Wayne Rooney’s England record on Thursday night — in a signal that he wants to stay on in the Premier League rather than move abroad this summer.
Sunak called up Kane for a pep talk on Saturday and to congratulate him on becoming England’s all-time record scorer with 54 goals, his second record of the season after beating Jimmy Greaves’s Tottenham goal-scoring record last month.
And it might be taken as a sign as to where he will be moving in the summer, with the striker widely anticipated to leave Tottenham.
