Harry Kane Bored of Goals, Aims for Ronaldo and Messi’s Ballon d’Or Glory

England and Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane has expressed his frustration with merely scoring goals, setting his sights on the prestigious Ballon d'Or award, a trophy dominated by Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in recent years. Kane, who recently moved to Bayern Munich from Tottenham, has been prolific in front of goal but feels that individual accolades like the Ballon d'Or are now within his reach.

Speaking to The Sun, Kane said, 'I'm tired of just scoring goals. I want to be recognized as one of the best in the world, not just a goalscorer.' His ambition is clear, as he looks to emulate the success of Ronaldo and Messi, who have won the Ballon d'Or a combined 13 times since 2008.

Kane's move to Bayern was partly motivated by his desire to compete at the highest level and increase his chances of winning the Ballon d'Or. The 30-year-old striker has started his Bayern career strongly, scoring 21 goals in 19 appearances across all competitions, signaling his intent to challenge the dominance of Ronaldo and Messi.
