Tottenham striker Harry Kane admits the chance to match Bobby Moore's success with England is motivating him.

Kane is preparing to skipper the team in the clash against Italy at Wembley, the Three Lions' second major tournament final, 55 years on from their World Cup triumph.

It was put to the 27-year-old on Friday that England winning on Sunday would lead to comparisons between him and Bobby Moore, captain of the 1966 team.

Kane told reporters: “Whenever your name is mentioned in the same company as players like that, it only gives you motivation, gives you confidence.

“Of course it would be an incredible achievement. We've all waited so long as players, as public, as people to see us in a final. So these are the opportunities you have to grab with both hands.

“We have an amazing chance to win our second major trophy as a country. The players we've had over the years and produced, we feel proud to be representing them as well.

“We've got to be excited for it, we've got to enjoy it, but of course, any football match, we're all winners here, we all want to win, and we're going to need every bit of that to get the job done on Sunday."

Asked if he had allowed himself to imagine what it would be like to lift the trophy at Wembley, Kane said: “I think for sure as players you think of that moment, you dream of that moment.

“Obviously we're all grounded enough to know we have a very tough game on our hands on Sunday. But there's a good belief in this team.

“We came close a few years ago (reaching the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup), so to bounce back in this tournament and go one step further has been a great sign, a great mentality that we've created. But of course, we all want to win.

“You dream of these moments as a kid, lifting trophies for your country, and we have that opportunity now."
