The Madame Tussauds London figure of Kane was displayed at Ridgeway Rovers FC in North London ahead of him becoming England’s most-capped men’s player.

Kane first kicked off his footballing journey at Ridgeway Rovers aged six, and the return of his wax figure to the club marked a full-circle moment in his career.

It was part of a celebration organised by Madame Tussauds London, who brought the figure to the club ahead of Kane’s 126th England appearance, as he prepared to overtake Peter Shilton’s long-standing record of 125 caps.

Peter Shilton, who attended the event, said: "I've held the England men's cap record for quite a few years now, but if anyone deserves to overtake me, it's Harry. He's been an incredible servant and leader for so long now, and has scored plenty of goals along the way.

"It's been great to spend time with Harry's Madame Tussauds London figure and the children at his first club Ridgeway Rovers - what a committed group of youngsters."

Shilton, who was himself immortalised by Madame Tussauds London in 1986, joined the event to help surprise young players at the club. The waxwork, dressed in this year’s England kit, surprised boys and girls aged seven to 14 ahead of their usual training sessions.

Steve Blackburn, General Manager at Madame Tussauds London, said: "At Madame Tussauds London, we're proud to celebrate the icons who have shaped British culture and sport, so it felt fitting to mark this historic footballing moment by bringing together Peter Shilton and our Harry Kane figure ahead of the England captain's bid to become the nation's most-capped men's player.

"Returning Harry’s figure to Ridgeway Rovers, where his footballing journey began, and sharing that moment with Peter and the next generation of young players was a special way to celebrate football’s past, present and future."
