Exciting four-year Newcastle prediction made by Shearer ally as he sends hilarious transfer message

Harry Kane should move to Newcastle United to win a trophy and erase Alan Shearer's name from history by becoming the Premier League's all-time leading goalscorer. That is the mischievous view of Neil Ruddock, who has also made the exciting prediction the Magpies' could be at the same level as champions Manchester City in four years' time.

Shearer remains top of the division's all-time scoring chart with a return of 260 goals from his time with Blackburn Rovers and the Magpies. The legendary number nine went on to surpass Jackie Milburn's tally and also become the record goalscorer for his boyhood club.

However, Shearer's status as the Premier League's top marksman looks in serious doubt after another stunning season for Kane. Despite Tottenham's struggles, the England captain netted 30 league goals to move above Wayne Rooney and into second in the rankings.
