Harry Kane Set for Record 126th England Cap as Three Lions Face Croatia at Wembley

Harry Kane will become England’s most-capped player of all time when the Three Lions host Croatia at Wembley on Thursday night, moving past Peter Shilton with his 126th international appearance.

The 33-year-old is already his country’s all-time leading scorer with 91 goals, and coach Thomas Tuchel has confirmed his captain will start as England look to seal a place in the Nations League quarter-finals.

England need only a draw against Croatia to progress, sitting second in Group A3 behind Spain and six points clear of the Croatians with a far superior goal difference after thrashing them 7-0 in Rijeka last month.

A year to remember

Fresh from being crowned Ballon d’Or winner, Kane’s record-breaking night caps a remarkable year — and he will have another huge test on Sunday when England travel to Madrid to face world champions Spain.

Spain can seal top spot

Spain, already through with a perfect record, will be confirmed as group winners if they better England’s result against Croatia when they face the Czech Republic on Thursday.
