Early Life

On July 28, 1993, Kim and Patrick Kane welcomed Harry Edward Kane into the world in Walthamstow, London. Charlie Kane is Harry’s older brother.
From his Galway-born father, he possesses Irish ancestry. Kane attended Larkswood Primary School before switching to Chingford Foundation School in 2004 after the family relocated there. From an early age, he played football, and in 1999, at the age of six, he joined the neighbourhood team Ridgeway Rovers.

Before entering the Arsenal junior program in 2001, Kane began playing football in his community with Ridgeway Rovers in 1991 when he was six years old. Prior to being spotted by Tottenham in 2004, who developed the youngster into the striker he is today, he briefly played for his old club Rovers and Watford. Kane soon moved up the club’s ranks and played for the team in the Under-16 and Under-18 divisions.

When Harry Kane was selected to represent England in the Under-17 category in 2010, he first gained attention on a global scale. He then played a crucial part in leading the Under-19 squad to the 2012 UEFA European Under-19 Championship semifinals. After then, Kane continued to represent his team in Under-21 competition until making the senior team.

Career

Kane solidified his place in Tottenham’s first team during the 2014–15 season after successful loan experiences with Millwall, Norwich City, and Leicester City. Kane had a remarkable season that earned him a spot on the PFA team and the PFA player of the year award. With 21 goals, he also had the most goals in the division.

Kane maintained his form the next year, scoring 25 goals to earn the Premier League Golden Boot and aid Tottenham in their third-place finish. For the second time in a straight, he was selected for the PFA team.

The number of goals scored by Harry Kane’s boot increased as the seasons went on. He finished the 2016–2017 season with 29 goals, earning the Golden Boot for a second consecutive season—making him the only player to accomplish this feat. For the third season in a row, he was also a member of the PFA team.

He dominated Europe in the 2017–18 season, amassing 56 goals across all competitions to become the continent’s leading scorer. In addition, he set a record by scoring six hat tricks in a calendar year in the Premier League. He became Tottenham’s all-time leading scorer at the end of the season and scored his 100th Premier League goal.

Harry Kane’s goal-scoring run was not restricted to the Premier League; he is also one of England’s most successful strikers today.

Personal Life

Outside football, Kane created the Harry Kane Foundation, which ‘seeks to improve perceptions of mental health by normalising dialogue and cultivating positive behaviours to eradicate the stigma around the subject’.
