Harry Kane takes Premier League record away from Manchester United great Wayne Rooney

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Harry Kane has wrestled a Premier League record away from Manchester United great Wayne Rooney. A man who needs no introduction at Old Trafford and beyond, Rooney scored 253 goals for United during a hugely successful 13 years with the club between 2004 and 2017.

He is currently the manager at cash-strapped Derby in the Championship. Rooney netted 208 times during his Premier League career - for Everton and United - with 94 of his strikes coming on the road in away matches.

That stood as a competition high before Kane surpassed his total.
