The captain of the English national team, Harry Kane, has said that he feels ready for a new chapter of England. In a press conference, the English bomber said that he still feels the pain of the defeat to Spain in the Euro 2024 final, but is more motivated than ever to help his team win a trophy. The striker of Bayern Munich said:
"When you get so close to a trophy, and you can't win it, it's difficult. But it motivates me even more. We must try to reach that level. Our job is to improve. I think when you look at players like Ronaldo, Modric, Messi and other players who are playing in their 30s, that's an inspiration for me because it shows that you can play at a high level for a long time."
Kane added:
"I want to play football as long as I can and at the highest level, as long as possible. I see those players as motivation and inspiration to do this. I think I'm in a good physical and mental condition to have another good season. I hope this will continue in the coming years."
We remind you that in the English national team, at the head of the bench is the temporary coach Carsley. The latter took over after the resignation of Gareth Southgate. The English Football Federation has given Carsley the management of the team for the next 2 matches, but the possibility is not excluded that the technician will stay longer at the head of the "3 Lions" bench.
The English Football Association has quite high expectations for the next major competition, which is the World Cup in 2026. England remains one of the favorite teams to triumph in the grand tournament, despite failures in previous competitions.
