Chris Wood has admitted “it was not clear” Harry Kane would go on to become a world-class striker. At 29, the Tottenham Hotspur talisman is regarded as an elite finisher and will lead England into battle at the World Cup.
Just three goals at the tournament would see Kane eclipse Wayne Rooney and become the Three Lions’ all-time leading goalscorer. With 195 Premier League strikes to his name, he is also closing in on Newcastle United icon Alan Shearer’s top-flight record.
However, Kane’s road to stardom was not as smooth as some would think. Loan spells at Leyton Orient, Millwall, Norwich and Leicester City made the striker somewhat of a journeyman before he established himself at Tottenham.
