On Monday, January 24th, Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane made history by netting the only goal in a 1-0 victory against Fulham at Craven Cottage.
With this goal, Kane became Tottenham’s all-time joint-top scorer, moving level with club legend Jimmy Greaves.
Kane’s goal, which arrived in first-half stoppage time via a low strike from 19 yards, was his 266th for the club in 413 appearances.
This is a remarkable achievement for the 29-year-old, who has established himself as one of the most consistent and prolific goal scorers in the Premier League.
Kane has also scored 15 FA Cup goals, seven in the League Cup, and 45 in Europe.
This goal also marked Kane’s 199th in the Premier League, putting him just 62 goals away from breaking Alan Shearer’s all-time scoring record in the English top-flight. Kane has been a crucial player for Tottenham since he broke into the first team in the 2014/15 season, and has consistently been among the league’s top goal scorers.

Kane’s current contract with Tottenham is set to expire in June 2024, and the club will be eager to secure his long-term future. With Kane leading the line, Tottenham will be confident of achieving success both domestically and in Europe.
As Kane continues to break records and make history, fans will be eagerly watching to see what he will accomplish next.
