On this day: Kane broke Aguero’s Premier League record

Harry Kane wrote his name into Premier League history with the winning goal for Tottenham Hotspur against Wolves.

On 20 August 2022, Kane scored his 185th league goal for Spurs to set a new record for the most Premier League goals by a player for a single club.

The England striker surpassed Sergio Aguero, who scored 184 goals during his decorated spell with Manchester City.

Kane reached the landmark in the 64th minute at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Ivan Perisic flicked Son Heung-min’s corner towards the back post, where Kane headed home from close range to secure a 1-0 victory.

The goal was also Kane’s 250th for Tottenham in all competitions, making him only the second player in the club’s history to reach that figure.

Kane continued adding to his tally before leaving Spurs for Bayern Munich in 2023. He ended his Premier League career with 213 goals, all scored in Tottenham colours.
