Kane eyes England caps record with Nations League fixtures ahead
England captain Harry Kane is poised to make history by becoming the nation's most-capped player, needing just four more appearances to surpass Peter Shilton's long-standing record. An upcoming Nations League schedule could provide the perfect platform for the striker to achieve the milestone.

Kane currently sits four caps short of Shilton's 125-appearance benchmark that has stood as England's record since the legendary goalkeeper's retirement. The England skipper will have multiple opportunities to close the gap during the upcoming UEFA Nations League campaign.
England's fixture list includes matches against Spain, Croatia, and two encounters with the Czech Republic, providing Kane with sufficient games to equal Shilton's tally. The 31-year-old has been a cornerstone of the England setup for over a decade, earning widespread recognition as one of the country's finest modern players.
Kane's pursuit of the record represents a significant milestone in English football history. Should he reach the figure, he would join an elite group of players who have represented their nations at the highest level of international competition for extended periods.
The Nations League campaign provides Kane with a genuine chance to etch his name permanently into England's record books during the coming weeks of international football.
