Harry Kane has broken Jimmy Greaves all-time scoring record for Tottenham with the opener in Sunday’s match with Manchester City.
Kane moved level with Greaves when he scored at Fulham last month and was an unused substitute in Saturday’s FA Cup win at Preston.
It took the Spurs forward only 15 minutes to go beyond Greaves against City when he side-footed into the bottom corner.

It sparked jubilant celebrations at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium where the screens inside the ground acknowledging the 29-year-old’s achievement before the club’s new record scorer waved to his family in the West Stand.
Kane had been close to leaving Spurs for City in the summer of 2021 but the north London club held firm.
