Harry Kane names Wayne Rooney on 'Mount Rushmore' of football icons - with Ronaldo the only foreign star selected by England captain

Kane has selected his 'Mount Rushmore' of footballers, selecting four of his favourite players from any era. The England skipper picked three former Three Lions captains, Rooney, Beckham and Moore, as well as the great Brazilian goalscorer Ronaldo.

Kane has been questioned in recent times when it comes to his international career, with Paul Scholes claiming he is at the "beginning of the end" for him. However, the Bayern Munich striker, who has scored 17 goals in 16 games this season, insists he has no plans to hang up his boots after the 2026 World Cup. Of course, he previously outstripped Rooney's international goal record, becoming England's all-time leading scorer in the process.

Kane said in the SPORTbible video selecting his four icons: "I'd go with David Beckham. A big idol of mine growing up, a great role model and one of England's greatest players so he'd definitely be there. I'd probably go with Wayne Rooney as well, I think watching Rooney growing up, seeing what he did for England, and then being lucky enough to play with him, and for him to be my captain was amazing so Rooney would definitely be in there."

He added: "Brazilian Ronaldo, being a striker. I used to love watching strikers growing up and I think he's one of the best to ever do it. He had a great mixture of goalscoring ability but also affecting the game with dribbling and some of his runs, he was one of the greatest number nines there's ever been. And I'm going to go with Bobby Moore. I think for an England captain to win a World Cup is inspiring and it's in my dreams and something I want to be able to achieve one day, so to have the opportunity to try and do that would be pretty amazing so I'll put him up there."

Kane will next be in action when Bayern take on Augsburg on November 22, before a mouthwatering Champions League clash with PSG.
