Harry Kane has now scored over 100 goals in two of Europe's top leagues.

The England captain reached 100 Bundesliga goals for Bayern Munich. Before that, he netted 213 goals in the Premier League while playing for Tottenham Hotspur.

Kane hit the Bundesliga milestone in just 98 matches. This shows how well he has been scoring since moving to Germany.

According to Planet Football on Sunday, only five players have scored 100 goals in more than one of Europe's major leagues. These leagues are the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, and Ligue 1.

Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the most successful players in this group. The Portuguese star scored 311 La Liga goals for Real Madrid. He reached 100 goals in just 94 appearances. Later, he returned to the Premier League with Manchester United and ended his English career with 103 league goals.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic also achieved this milestone in two leagues. The Swedish forward scored 156 Serie A goals while with Juventus, Inter Milan, and AC Milan. He added 113 Ligue 1 goals for Paris Saint-Germain.

Edinson Cavani is another top striker who scored a lot in Italy and France. He scored 112 Serie A goals while with Palermo and Napoli. He then netted 138 times in Ligue 1 for PSG.

Gonzalo Higuain was the last player to join this group before Kane. The Argentine scored 107 La Liga goals for Real Madrid. He then scored 125 Serie A goals while playing for Napoli, Juventus, and AC Milan.

Kane's achievement puts him in the same league as four of the best goalscorers of his time.

With his century in the Bundesliga after his success in the Premier League, Kane has proven himself as one of the few who can score consistently in two of Europe's biggest leagues.
