Harry Kane
Early life
Harry Edward Kane was born at Whipps Cross University Hospital in Whipps Cross, Leytonstone, London . His father's name is Patrick Kane and mother's name is Kim Kane, both of whom are Irish . He has one elder brother, Charlie. When the family moved to Chingford , Harry attended Larkswood Primary Academy there until 2004, after which he started to study in Chingford Foundation School , in which David Beckham also studied. Kane described his childhood as:
“
I think the sporting genes come from my Mum's side of the family although the topic is a hot debate in the Kane household. Dad probably won't like me saying that, but I think my granddad Eric on my Mum's side was quite a good footballer, and played at a decent level.
”
Kane also said: "Most of my family were Spurs fans and I grew up 15 minutes from the ground, so I was always going to be a Spurs fan". He said that when he was a child he wanted to be like Teddy Sheringham , he thought of him as a "great finisher" and a role model because he scores a lot of goals.
Records and achievements
Harry Kane became England's all-time leading goalscorer in March 2023 after scoring his 54th international goal in a UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying match against Italy.
In his first Bundesliga season with Bayern Munich, Kane finished as the league's top scorer with 36 goals during the 2023–24 season.
He is also Tottenham Hotspur's all-time leading goalscorer and one of the highest goalscorers in Premier League history.
