Harry Kane described becoming Tottenham Hotspur’s record goalscorer as surreal and a dream come true after taking his tally to 267 and moving past Jimmy Greaves on Sunday.
The 29-year-old struck in the 15th minute to earn his side a 1-0 win over Manchester City, also taking his Premier League total to 200.
Kane, who joined Spurs as an 11-year-old, was mobbed by his teammates after the final whistle then addressed fans in a pitch interview. A message of congratulations from the late Greaves’ son Danny was also shown on the screens.
“It’s quite surreal, a magical feeling to do it in front of the home fans and to win the game, I wanted to do it at this special place and in front of these amazing fans,” England captain Kane said.
“I’ve been here since I was 11 and it’s been a lot of hard work and sacrifice and dedication.
“I remember my first Premier League game and now to reach 200 Premier League goals it’s hard to take it in but when I’m older and look back it will be something I’m very proud of.
