Tottenham's Harry Kane keeps breaking goalscoring records. The England international has become the first player in Premier League history to score more than 30 goals in two different seasons.

Harry Kane, against Leeds United, equalled both a personal and global record in the Premier League. For the 3rd time in his career, he scored in 6 successive away games, a milestone that had only ever been achieved by 4 other English players.

It was not the only record that the England international achieved on Sunday. According to Sportbible, the 'Spurs' striker has become the first player in Premier League history to score more than 30 goals in two different 38-game seasons.

Specifically, he achieved them in the current and last 2017-18 campaigns. In both, he scored thirty goals in the English domestic championship. A historic milestone, as no one had ever achieved it before.

Despite Kane's two goalscoring championships, he has fallen short of the Golden Boot. In the 2017-18 season he was overtaken by Liverpool's Mohammed Salah, who scored 32 goals, and this season he has been overtaken by Erling Haaland, who broke the record with 36 goals.
