Harry Kane will spearhead England’s World Cup 2026 charge off the back of the finest season of his career to date.
The Bayern Munich man has already racked up a whopping 58 club goals in all competitions in 2025/26, with the DFB-Pokal (German Cup) final still to come – plus five goals for his country. He hasn’t gone more than two games without scoring all campaign – and not more than one game since November.
And LiveScore Bet are currently offering odds of 7/1* on the England captain to win the Golden Boot as top scorer at this summer’s tournament.
Kane claimed the prize at the 2018 World Cup, firing England to their first semi-final in 28 years, and no striker bound for North America is in better nick than the 32-year-old right now.
England’s all-time leading marksman with 78 goals and counting, Kane has found the net at each of his four major international tournaments so far, recording his best return of six goals eight years ago in Russia.
While Kylian Mbappe won the World Cup Golden Boot with eight goals four years ago, six goals was – or would have been – enough to secure the award outright at each of the previous three editions, with Miroslav Klose taking it with five goals in 2006.
And with Thomas Tuchel’s Three Lions having a favourable-looking group at the 2026 World Cup – including one of the lowest-ranked sides in the tournament, Ghana – Kane could give himself a great foundation for winning the Golden Boot during the group stage alone (not that he ever has much trouble scoring against any opposition).
