Harry Kane shared a message on social media after reaching a significant milestone for England, all while speculation surrounding his future continues to swirl.

Thomas Tuchel's first match in charge of England ended in a 2-0 victory over Albania on 21 March at Wembley Stadium.

Myles Lewis-Skelly made an impressive debut, scoring on his first appearance and becoming the youngest player to score on their England debut.

Kane added to the lead in the second half, extending his tally to 70 international goals, further solidifying his position as the nation’s all-time leading goalscorer.

Since making the switch from Tottenham to Bayern Munich, he has been constantly linked with a potential return to the Premier League.

Football Insider has revealed that Man United have made Kane a key target for the upcoming summer transfer window as they look to strengthen their attacking options.

However, despite the ongoing speculation about his future, the former Spurs striker remains focused on delivering for his country, maintaining a positive outlook after the victory.

Kane took to Instagram to send a heartfelt message after reaching the milestone of 70 goals for England, while also congratulating Lewis-Skelly and Dan Burn on their debuts.

He said: "So proud to have scored 70 goals for England!! A brilliant night at Wembley and a strong start to World Cup qualifying. Congrats Myles Lewis-Skelly on a really special first England appearance and goal, and to Dan Burn on the debut!"

A number of players liked the image including Declan Rice and Harry Maguire, who isn’t part of the squad as he is currently injured.

Lewis-Skelly made history by surpassing Marcus Rashford's 2016 record, becoming the youngest player to score on their England debut at 18 years and 176 days.

Meanwhile Mick Brown, Manchester United's former chief scout, told Football Insider that INEOS are keen to pursue a deal for Kane during the summer transfer window.

Despite this speculation, Kane has enjoyed a stellar goalscoring season at Bayern Munich, with 32 goals and 11 assists in 37 appearances.

It's clear that United will target a forward in the summer, with Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee both underperforming this season. Some Man United supporters have even called for Hojlund's sale, after he only recently ended a 20-game goal drought.

Man United are also targeting Viktor Gyokeres, with as the striker is a top priority for manager Ruben Amorim.

However, Kane remains a strong candidate, with Manchester United's owners seemingly favouring a move for the England captain.

Despite the ongoing transfer talk, Kane's focus remains on his international commitments, and Tuchel will be pleased to see his striker in top form ahead of England's match against Latvia on 24 March.
