How many goals has Harry Kane scored in London derbies?

Harry Kane has played in plenty of London derbies in his career, and the striker has scored in a fair few of them.

While they only really have big rivalries with Arsenal and Chelsea, Spurs have a number of local (ish) derbies against sides with whom they share a city.

Here’s how Kane has fared against them all for his club.

Kane has scored in the majority of matches he has played for Spurs since bursting onto the scene in 2014, so it’s no surprise that he’s regularly found the back of the net in London derbies.

In total, he’s played in 101 games against fellow London sides for Spurs, facing nine different clubs based in the capital city.

In the matches against them, the 29-year-old has scored a total of 59 goals, averaging well over a goal a game.

The majority of the goals he’s scored in London derbies have come in the most important of them all, the North London derby with Arsenal.

He’s faced the Gunners 19 times and has scored 14 goals, only failing to find the back of the net on seven occasions and becoming the derby’s record-goalscorer.

Kane has found the back of the net regularly against West Ham too, scoring 11 times in 19 matches, and has 10 goals in 18 clashes with Crystal Palace.

He hasn’t enjoyed quite as much success against Chelsea but his record of eight goals in 21 games isn’t bad by any means, although not as good as the one he boasts against fellow West London club Fulham, with him scoring eight goals in seven matches.

The England captain also has three goals for Spurs against Watford, two against AFC Wimbledon and QPR, and has scored once against Brentford.
