Harry Kane targeting Hollywood summer blockbuster with Champions League win at Wembley and Euro 2024 triumph in new home

HARRY KANE is eyeing a Hollywood summer blockbuster — by winning the Champions League in London and the European Championships in Germany.

The England captain is desperate for ­trophies after his £100million switch to Bayern Munich and has a dream scenario in mind.

Kane, 30, said: “I have been told about the Champions League final at Wembley, for sure.

"I know the Euros are in Germany next summer. So if there’s someone out there writing a movie, I’ll try and do my best to make it happen!

“There’s so much time to go I don’t want to think about it too much.

“But if it did happen it would be incredible.”

England will virtually secure qualification for the Euro 2024 finals if they defeat Ukraine here in the Polish city of Wroclaw tonight.

And Kane admitted his angst at going potless in more than a decade at Tottenham while Three Lions team-mates were lifting trophies.

The striker said: “There is no hiding the fact that winning trophies is the one thing missing from my career.

“When the boys are playing the Champions League and I am just sitting at home watching it, I would be lying if I said there wasn’t a part of me that hurt.

“Of course, I want them to do well — Kyle Walker and all those guys to win when they are in competitions I am not in — but a part of me wants to have those experiences.

“I am not sure ‘jealous’ is the right word, but it motivates me to push myself towards some of those trophies the guys have got.”

A 2-1 win in their first qualifying game in Italy has set the tone for this qualifying campaign.

England could confirm their place in Germany over the next few days if they win and other results go their way.

Boss Gareth Southgate said: “We have got to focus on what would get us to that point.

“We have to make sure we can come to an intense atmosphere and perform as we did against Italy in Naples.”

Southgate is set to ignore criticism of midfielder Jordan Henderson for moving to Saudi Arabia by picking him in tonight’s starting XI.

The boss insisted: “I don’t pick the team based on external reaction as you’ll be well aware over the course of seven years.
