Harry Kane's Future with England Remains Uncertain
Harry Kane's future with England remains uncertain as he reflects on his best season ever, with the 2026 World Cup still on the horizon. The England striker just came off a stupendous season with Bayern Munich and the England national team, logging 81 goals and assists from the start of the 2025/26 season all the way to the 2026 World Cup.
What Happened?
Kane is well on the wrong side of 30, and it is thought that he just played his last World Cup match when England beat France 6-4 in the third-place match, but he's not going to jump the gun. "I'm coming off my best season ever and I'm nearly 33," Kane explained (as captured by X account @iMiaSanMia). "It's impossible to say now, 4 years is a long time. Playing for England is my biggest ambition and the proudest thing to do. Let's see."
Why It Matters for England
Kane's future is crucial to England's chances in the 2026 World Cup. If he can keep up his rate of contributing goals, then an appearance at the next World Cup at the age of 37 isn't out of the question. However, Kane is taking things one step at a time, focusing on his performance with Bayern Munich and the next England camp.
What Comes Next?
Kane's next fixture is against Spain at home on September 26, 2026. He will be looking to continue his impressive form and keep his options open for the 2026 World Cup. Recent form (last 5): 4W-0D-1L (WWLWW, most recent first); on a 2-game winning run. Last result: France 4-6 England (2026-07-18).
