England Football: Despite missing his Euro, Harry Kane has no intention of leaving the England team in the short term. The Three Lions’ all-time top scorer plans to take inspiration from Cristiano Ronaldo.
Harry Kane is set to play his 100th match with the England national team on Tuesday, September 10, against Finland, in the second day of the Nations League. Heavily criticized in the UK, the player who has scored 66 goals for England is still not thinking about international retirement.
On the contrary, he intends to take inspiration from a certain Cristiano Ronaldo, who continues to perform at the highest level. His latest goals with the Portuguese national team are proof of this. “Cristiano Ronaldo is the benchmark, not only because he is one of the best players in history, but also in terms of longevity at the highest level. I feel very good physically and mentally. But I am sure that there will be criticism of me, as there is of Cristiano,” said the Bavarian striker, before facing Finland on Tuesday. “Ronaldo, Messi, Benzema and Lewandowski have almost increased their level of play at around 35 years old. Cristiano shows it every week, every time he plays and scores. So for me, that is the objective,” added the former Tottenham Spurs striker.
Harry Kane is always hungry
Harry Kane does not intend to give in to criticism and stop there: “I feel really good, physically and mentally at the peak of my career. See [Cristiano] Ronaldo scoring his 901st goal at 39 inspires me to play for as long as I can. I love representing England more than anything and I don’t want that to stop anytime soon. It’s just about continuing to improve and be consistent. Who knows how many caps or goals I can get, but I’m hungry for more.”
Asked about his position on the pitch, Harry Kane does not seem to have a problem: “I have always been someone who can play high or low. I have a sufficiently complete game to be effective in both areas. For me, it is about improving with Bayern. The new coach asks me to do a lot of pressing, to press the opponent without the ball, which helps me to improve. Football is changing. Pressing is important. It is something that you have to know how to manage,” he concluded.
