After Harry Edward Kane MBE became the highest scoring Englishman in #UCL history, here are some of the other records you may or may not know that he has broken throughout his career. Harry Kane in the Premier League in 2022/23:

◉ 38 games
◉ 30 goals
◉ 26 games scored in

And it wasn't enough to win the Golden Boot. 🤯

Who do you think is the best team in Europe right now? 💭 Most points per game in Europe's top seven leagues so far this season:

◉ 2.7 - PSV
◎ 2.67 - Bayer Leverkusen
◎ 2.67 - Sporting CP

We've found the perfect replacements for Declan Rice... The realistic pick from our data-inspired shortlist was Valentin Rongier.

Marseille's club captain can help replace Rice's qualities both on and off the pitch.

But it sounds like Edson Álvarez is the most likely signing in the 'real world'. 😅

Every winner of the #U21EURO since 2000. 🧵

The talent in some of these sides... 😮‍💨 2000 - Italy 🇮🇹

What if other Premier League clubs used Man City's build-up system in 2023/24? 🤔 👥 Arsenal

The 2022 FIFA World Cup is here. Who will perform? 🎭

Squawka x @WrldSoccerShop Will Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo score their first World Cup knockout stage goals?

@azulfeehely describes Jules Koundé as one of Europe's most promising centre-backs. Let's take a look at why that might be.

#SquawkaScout x @LaLigaLowdown @azulfeehely @LaLigaLowdown "There’s few with as high a ceiling as the young Frenchman."

The full lowdown from @azulfeehely. 🔎

Athletically supreme and technically gifted, Achraf Hakimi is the perfect wing-back.

Soon, he will have a huge decision to make. #WednesdayWisdom

[THREAD][1/10] "In June, I will have to make a decision and it will be a great step for my career."

1) Displace Dani Carvajal
2) Stay at Borussia Dortmund
3) Join a completely new club

Every option is possible for this hyper-talented player.
