World Cup Top Goalscorer Betting Preview: Harry Kane

Harry Kane - England

Harry Kane has been named England captain ahead of the World Cup and the Tottenham forward will likely be the Three Lions' main goal threat in Russia.

The 24-year-old has been a revelation since breaking into the Spurs first team, finishing as the Premier League top scorer in two of the past three seasons.

Mo Salah may have denied Kane a third straight Golden Boot award but 30 goals in the Premier League was his best return to date for a top-flight season.

World Cup Top Goalscorer Odds - 16/1 (17.0)

Five goals in Group F made Kane his nations' most prolific player en route to Russia despite only playing six times due to injury in the early part of the campaign.

If England are to improve on their dismal showing in the previous European Championships, Kane will likely need to transfer his top quality domestic form to the international stage after failing to find the back of the net in France two years ago.

The Tottenham striker is essentially assured of his prominent starting position, has undouted class in front of goal but England's failures at major tournaments of late have got to be a concern for those supporting him to be the top scorer this summer.
