Wayne Rooney is confident Harry Kane will break Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer's Premier League goalscoring record. The legendary number nine stands clear at the top with 260 strikes through his time with Southampton, Blackburn Rovers and the Magpies.
Kane currently sits fifth in the list with 178 strikes, but did not add to this tally despite Tottenham's 5-1 thrashing of Newcastle on Sunday. The 28-year-old has publicly outlined his desire to surpass Shearer's record, with the Match of the Day pundit recently joking he would like to see the England international move abroad this summer.
Former Everton and Manchester United striker Rooney is second on the list with 208 goals, with Andy Cole and Sergio Aguero also in Kane's sights. The Derby County boss appeared on Sky Sports' Monday Night Football ahead of Arsenal's clash with Crystal Palace, and he was asked if he felt the Tottenham striker would end up top of the rankings.
