Florida [US], July 12 (ANI): England captain and Bayern Munich Harry Kane became the most-capped outfield player in the nation's history after featuring in the Three Lions' FIFA World Cup 2026 quarterfinal against Norway on Saturday (local time).
The Football Association confirmed the milestone on social media, with Kane making his 120th appearance for England to move level with Wayne Rooney on the country's all-time caps list. Only legendary goalkeeper Peter Shilton, who made 125 appearances, now stands ahead of the striker.
Kane's latest appearance sees him overtake several England greats, including David Beckham (115), Steven Gerrard (114), Bobby Moore (108), Ashley Cole (107), Bobby Charlton (106) and Frank Lampard (106).

England are taking on Norway in the FIFA World Cup 2026 quarterfinal, with Kane leading the side in their bid to secure a place in the semifinals.
