Harry Kane stands alone as the top scorer for a single Premier League club.

The striker's back-post header during Saturday's 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers was his 185th goal for Tottenham Hotspur in England's top flight, which sends him top of a list featuring legendary figures in the competition's history.

Player Club Goals
Harry Kane Tottenham Hotspur 185
Sergio Aguero Manchester City 184
Wayne Rooney Manchester United 183
Thierry Henry Arsenal 175
Alan Shearer Newcastle United 148

Kane's nodded effort also marked his 250th Tottenham goal across all competitions. Jimmy Greaves, the club's record scorer, has only 16 more goals than Kane.

The 29-year-old still has some way to go before he can be the outright top scorer in the Premier League. After his tally against Wolves, the Spurs icon moved ahead of Sergio Aguero and into fourth on the all-time list behind Alan Shearer (260 goals), Wayne Rooney (208), and Andy Cole (187).

"It's been a fantastic nine or 10 years in the Premier League," Kane said. "Hopefully many more years to go."

Brazilian great Ronaldo watched the London-born marksman's landmark day as a special guest at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. He was presented with a replica jersey with his name and favored No. 9 on the back.

Kane is also chasing records on the international scene. He's hit 50 goals for England, taking him just three behind the country's all-time top scorer, Rooney. Ellen White has scored 52 times for the England women's team.
