The timing of the approach is delicate, with Kane fully focused on leading Thomas Tuchel's side through the knockout stages. The striker has already found the net three times during the group stage, following a season in Munich where he notched a remarkable 61 goals in 51 games. Any decision regarding his club future will be parked until the Three Lions' fate is decided.
England are set to face DR Congo in the last 32 in Atlanta, and Kane's mind is strictly on internal matters. Speaking about his recent milestones on the world stage, the striker toldBBC Sport: "The World Cup is the biggest competition we play as professional footballers, so to get to 11 goals is a proud feeling. I just want to enjoy this moment with the team. I never take these moments for granted. Another good milestone to hit, and I hope it is not the last one in this tournament."
