Last week, Portugal great Cristiano Ronaldo reached the landmark of 900 career goals for club and country at the age of 39.

Kane is eight years younger than Ronaldo and the Bayern Munich striker says he sees the former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward as inspiration for how long his own career can go.

“I feel in really good shape, both physically and mentally, at a peak in my career,” he said.

“Watching other players, Ronaldo scoring his 901st goal [against Scotland on Sunday], seeing him compete at 39 years old inspires me to play for as long as possible.

“I love this game, I love representing England more than anything and I don’t want it to end any time soon. For me, personally, now it’s about continuing to improve and being consistent both in an England shirt and at club level.

“I’m hungry for more. I’m determined to keep pushing the boundaries.”

Former Premier League striker Chris Sutton believes Kane can continue playing for England for many more years.

“I can see him going very long for a number of reasons,” Sutton said on BBC Radio 5 live’s Monday Night Club.

“Look at England at the moment, who will take his place?

“He doesn’t have great pace but he is a ruthless goal scorer and a brilliant footballer. He creates and scores. He is so good at both. He can go on for years and years.

“With his intelligence and the way he plays I think he will be around for a long time yet.”
