'When In 30s You’re Coming To An End,': Harry Kane Pictures England Future Post FIFA World Cup 2026

Among England's football's best players, Harry Kane is particularly remarkable. His outstanding goal-scoring ability, sophisticated playmaking abilities, and leadership traits have all contributed substantially to the national team's success. Kane, with many records and honours, still motivates next generations to uphold his legacy in the sport.

Harry Kane makes a huge statement about his future with the England National Team

Captain Harry Kane believes the 2026 World Cup will not be his last appearance for England.

There is increasing scrutiny about the 31-year-old Kane’s future, even though he extended his all-time England scoring record to 69 goals in 103 appearances as Ireland was beaten 5-0 on Sunday at Wembley Stadium.

The Bayern Munich striker was surprisingly omitted from the 3-0 win against Greece last Thursday.

A statue and mural of Kane were unveiled on Monday at the east London home of his former youth team Ridgeway Rovers. The British Press Association asked him if the 2026 World Cup is his last shot at glory for England. “I don’t think so,” he said.

“I think there’s a perception when you get to your 30s that you’re coming to an end, but for me I’m performing at the highest level I’ve ever performed and feel as good as I’ve ever felt, so it’s about taking in the moment.

“I don’t like to look too far ahead, and in my career I never have.

“The World Cup (in the U.S., Mexico and Canada) is going to be exciting. In America it will be an incredible occasion and ultimately it’s about trying to win that, looking at where you are, where to improve and it will be no different in a couple of years.”

Kane started playing at Ridgeway Rovers at age five, and liked his statue.

“It’s pretty special to be honest, these are things I didn’t think of when I was young. It all began here and it was the building blocks of my career. This is a great inspiration for the boys and girls who play.”

Asked what it will take for him to have a statue outside Wembley, alongside Bobby Moore, England’s 1966 World Cup-winning captain, Kane said, “I think we need to win a major tournament.

“We’ve come close on a couple of occasions and the next step is for me and the other boys to win.

“We have a new coach coming in March (Thomas Tuchel). He’ll be great for us, he has vast experience in the big competitions, he’ll bring a great energy to the team and he’ll put his own stamp and identity on the way we play tactically.”
