Harry Kane is closing in on David Beckham record of 54 goal contributions in the UEFA Champions League. With 50 contributions in just 55 matches, including 12 this season, Kane could surpass Beckham soon. If Bayern Munich advances, he may break into the top 20 all-time, further solidifying his legacy.
In the UEFA Champions League, Harry Kane is closing in on a long-standing record set by David Beckham. With his latest goal and assist in Bayern Munich’s 2-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen, Kane now has 50 goal contributions in the competition. Beckham, who managed 54 contributions (16 goals, 38 assists) in 107 appearances, is the only English player ahead of him. Kane, however, has reached 50 contributions in just 55 matches, showcasing his incredible efficiency.
At 31 years old, Kane has been a standout performer for Bayern this season, registering 12 goal contributions in just 11 Champions League appearances. If Bayern progresses further, he has a strong chance of surpassing Beckham and breaking into the top 20 all-time Champions League contributors, where Kaka and Arjen Robben currently sit with 55 contributions.
Bayern’s next challenge is a quarter-final clash against Inter Milan, a team that has conceded only two goals in 10 matches this season. Meanwhile, Cristiano Ronaldo holds the record for most goal contributions in a single season, with 22 in Real Madrid’s 2013/14 campaign. Kane’s incredible form in Munich strengthens his case as one of England’s greatest-ever strikers, and he remains determined to win his first major club trophy.
