England's star striker Harry Kane is gearing up for a milestone 🏆—his 100th appearance for the national team in the UEFA Nations League Group B2 clash against Finland this Tuesday. At just 31, Kane is already dreaming big and eyeing a career as enduring as Cristiano Ronaldo's.
Speaking at a press conference on Monday, Kane shared his ambitions: \"I feel in really good shape. I feel both physically and mentally at a peak in my career. Just watching other players like Ronaldo scoring his 901st goal yesterday and seeing him compete at 38, 39 years old, just inspires me to play for as long as possible.\"
Ronaldo, 39, continues to dazzle fans worldwide 🌍, netting his 901st career goal in Portugal's 2-1 victory over Scotland on September 8. His longevity and relentless pursuit of excellence serve as a blueprint for Kane.
\"I've grown up looking up to players like Ronaldo and Lionel Messi,\" Kane added. \"Their rivalry defined an era, and they've set the bar for what's possible in football.\"
As Kane stands on the cusp of his 100th cap, he's not just celebrating past achievements but also setting sights on the future. If his idols are anything to go by, the best may still be yet to come. ⚽🔥
