Rooney fancied to be top dog for England in 2015
HARRY KANE'S England debut was held back until the 71st minute of Friday’s 4-0 win at home to Lithuania but he needed just 80 seconds to steal the headlines with a simple headed goal and bookmakers are eager to anticipate what the future may hold for the Tottenham forward.
Roy Hodgson is expected to hand Kane his first international start when the Three Lions face Italy in Turin on Tuesday and bet365 go 7-4 that the 21-year-old is in the England 11 for their first match at Euro 2016.
The firm offer 7-2 that Kane is the top England scorer at the tournament and 33-1 that he tops the overall scoring charts at the Euros.
A much-changed line-up is set to face the Azzurri with Danny Welbeck, James Milner (both knee) and Raheem Sterling (toe) ruled out with minor injuries and Leighton Baines allowed to miss the trip.
Kane is 33-1 with Coral to become England’s all-time record goalscorer – a feat which could be about to get harder with 47-goal striker Wayne Rooney closing in on Sir Bobby Charlton’s 49-goal benchmark.
Rooney is still fancied by Hills to be England's top goalscorer in 2015. The Three Lions skipper is 4-7 with Kane at 5-2.
