Harry Kane Childhood Story (What you didn’t know)
Harry Kane Childhood
Harry Edward Kane was born on 28 July 1993 in Chingford, a suburban area in north-east London.
This place is just five miles from Spurs’ stadium, White Hart Lane. He was born to parents named Kim and Patrick Kane.
He grew up in Chingford alongside his brother Charlie, and they both attended Chingford Foundation School.
Harry Kane was raised in the Irish lifestyle. Both parents are from Galway, a port city on the west coast of Ireland. They have just moved to London to have their children.
Striker grew up learning the customs, traditions, language, music, art and literature of Londoners. His football talent came naturally as he was genetically linked to his mother’s family. In a recent interview, Harry Said,
“I believe my athletic abilities come from my mother’s side of the family, although it is a somewhat controversial topic in our house.
My father may not agree, but I think my grandfather Eric, on my mother’s side, was a very talented football player and played at a respectable level.”

Kane first played for a local club, Ridgeway Rovers, and joined Arsenal’s youth academy when he was eight years old. He was released after one season for being “a bit chubby” and not “very athletic”, according to Liam Brady , then in charge of Arsenal’s academy. Manager Arsène Wenger stated in November 2015 that he was disappointed that Arsenal had chosen to release Kane. He also had a trial at Tottenham Hotspur, but was initially unsuccessful, and returned to his former club Ridgeway Rovers. In 2004, aged eleven, he joined Watford’s academy for a four to six week trial, and then got another chance at Tottenham after impressing playing for Watford against Tottenham. He first played for Tottenham as a midfielder – initially as a holding midfielder, then as an attacking midfielder.
In his early days at Tottenham, Kane didn’t stand out as a player, as he wasn’t big or particularly fast, but those who worked with him noticed his constant desire to improve various aspects of his game. A few years after joining, he had a huge growth spurt that made him taller and physically stronger. In the 2008–09 season , he played in the under-16 team that competed in the Copa Chivas tournament in Mexico and the Bellinzona tournament in Switzerland, scoring three goals. In July 2009, on his 16th birthday, he signed a scholarship contract with Tottenham.
In the 2009–10 season , Kane played 22 times for Tottenham’s under-18s, scoring 18 goals. Kane appeared on the first-team bench twice during the 2009–10 season. Both matches were domestic cup victories: one in the League Cup against Everton on 27 October 2009 and the other in the FA Cup fourth round replay against Bolton Wanderers on 24 February 2010.
