Regular additions have been made to that haul down the years, with the 31-year-old striker making history as the all-time leading scorer for Tottenham and his country. During his time in the Premier League, Kane bagged eight trebles for Spurs – with only three players (Sergio Aguero, Alan Shearer and Robbie Fowler) registering more.

Kane bagged four hat-tricks during his debut campaign at Bayern, and has already matched that return through just 19 appearances this season – with four goals recorded in a Champions League clash with Dinamo Zagreb back in September.
WHAT KANE SAID
Kane has now told supporters at a fan club meeting in Bavaria of what happens to his match balls, with his son putting that ever-growing collection to good use: “We store them at home, we have a trophy cabinet for them. But my son Louis plays with most of them in the house. If I don't bring a hat-trick ball home, he's disappointed.”

For England, with 69 goals to his name in total, Kane has hit five hat-tricks – putting him level with Gary Lineker and one behind Jimmy Greaves. He has been nursing a knock of late, preventing him from turning out for Bayern, but should be back shortly as he looks to bring a barren run on the trophy front to a close.
