Who could score the most goals in Premier League history?
All eyes have turned to Harry Kane as the only candidate anywhere near toppling Alan Shearer’s legendary record.
The Tottenham superstar is 29 years old and is 56 goals shy of the all-time record. He has been in terrific goalscoring form in the 2022/23 season
A 25-goal haul this term is a reasonable one for Kane given his progress so far. That total would see him draw exactly level with Wayne Rooney on 208.
