Kane kick-started his footballing career at just six years of age when he first appeared for Ridgeway Rovers, a local club, before taking it professionally by enrolling in Arsenal youth academy.

However, his natural build in his early years proved to be a stumbling block in his Arsenal career, which saw him released from the club because he was perceived as too “overweight” and too “short” for professional football.

After another failed trial with Spurs, Kane then returned to Ridgeway Rovers until 2004.

When he clocked eleven, he got another shot with a trial at Watford before finally joining Tottenham, playing as a midfielder.

He returned to White Hart Lane (Tottenham's former home ground) in the summer of 2013, where he has gone on to make over 242 league appearances for the first team while netting 166 times, making him the club's highest goal scorer of all time.

However, his breathtaking exploits for the North-London club were never enough to win him any silverware to date.

On the international front, Harry Kane was called up by his country for the first time in January 2010 for a tournament in Portugal at the under-17 level.
