Harry Kane Set to Break England Appearance Record Against Croatia

Harry Kane Set to Break England Appearance Record Against Croatia
World Sports · 14:19:02 - Sunday, 15 November 2026

England captain Harry Kane is poised to become the Three Lions' most-capped player of all time when he takes the field against Croatia in a UEFA Nations League fixture at Wembley Stadium on November 11, 2026. The match will mark Kane's 126th appearance for his country, surpassing the previous record held jointly by Peter Shilton and Wayne Rooney.

The 33-year-old striker, who made his senior debut in 2015, described the impending milestone as a "testament to dedication" and reflected on the journey from his first call-up to becoming England's all-time leading appearance maker. Kane has scored 69 goals in his 125 caps to date, also holding the record as England's all-time top scorer.

The Nations League encounter against Croatia carries added significance as both teams vie for position in their group. England will be looking to build momentum ahead of the next international window, while Kane's record-breaking appearance provides a personal landmark in what has been a distinguished international career spanning over a decade.

Wembley Stadium, the venue for this historic occasion, has been the stage for many of Kane's most memorable moments in an England shirt, including his hat-trick against Albania in World Cup qualifying and crucial goals in European Championship campaigns.
