England captain Harry Kane believes that the upcoming World Cup offers the biggest chance of his career to secure international glory.

Speaking to ITV Football, the striker acknowledged the unpredictable nature of the sport but expressed huge confidence in his current physical condition. He stressed that arriving at the global showpiece at the peak of his powers gives England a significant advantage. Kane stated:

What’s next for The Three Lions Captain?

Kane and his teammates begin their World Cup campaign against Croatia on June 17, followed by clashes with Ghana on June 23 and Panama on June 27. If he maintains his sensational form, the national team has a real chance to make history.
