Harry Kane eyes Premier League century next season

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane sets his sights on reaching 100 Premier League goals before the end of next season.

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has set himself a target of reaching 100 Premier League goals before the end of next season.

The 23-year-old shot to the top of the scoring charts for the current campaign with a four-goal haul in Thursday night's 6-1 victory over Leicester City, taking his tally to 26 this term and 75 overall.

A repeat of that next season would see him join an elite group of just 26 others to have reached a century of goals in the Premier League, and Kane is eager to achieve that as soon as possible.

"I think I said to someone the other day it would be great if I can get to that 100 club by the end of next season. I am on 75 in the league and if there is another season like this then hopefully I can get to the 100. It would be a fantastic achievement," he told reporters.

"I think there were three games I did not score [at the start of the season] and then I went on a good run.

"The biggest thing I'm proud of is that I had two big injuries and was out for 11 weeks so to still be there at the top of the Premier League and to score 30-plus goals [across all competitions] is a big achievement. Hopefully next season I can get off in the first game, get a couple of goals and go from there."

Seventy of Kane's 75 Premier League goals have come in his last 90 appearances.
