Harry Kane believes it would be “silly” to target a new all-time Premier League goalscoring record so early in his career.<\/p>\n
The Tottenham striker equalled Alan Shearer’s Premier League mark of 36 goals in a calendar year, set in 1995,\u00a0with another hat-trick in Saturday’s 3-0 win at Burnley.<\/p>\n
Kane’s fifth hat-trick of the year lifted him to 93 Premier League goals in total, but he has some way to go to match Shearer’s all-time best of 260.<\/p>\n
“Of course you dream about it, but I’d be silly to look that far ahead I think,” Kane said. “I’ve still got a long way to go. A lot can happen in football.<\/p>\n
“Hopefully I can stay fit, stay sharp and we’ll see what happens. Maybe if I get to 200 and I’ve still got a few more years left then I’ll start thinking about it.<\/p>\n
“But for now I’m concentrating on each game. I’ve had a great 2017 and hopefully, for me, it’s an improved 2018 and I get even better.”<\/p>\n
