Harry Kane is due to win his 126th England cap against Croatia at Wembley on Thursday, which would take him past Peter Shilton's 125 and make him England's most-capped player. Thomas Tuchel has confirmed that Kane will start as captain. Kane already holds England's scoring record, with 91 goals.
Kane, this year's Ballon d'Or winner, will show the trophy to the crowd before kickoff, beIN Sports reports. He is England's first winner since Michael Owen in 2001.
England need one point to secure a quarterfinal place, Sports Mole reports, and close their group against Spain on Sunday. Ezri Konsa misses the game with a minor injury, and Bournemouth defender James Hill has his first senior call-up. Myles Lewis-Skelly is also out. England won the October meeting 7–0 in Rijeka.
