While Kane moved to Tottenham Hotspur and became England captain, Yennaris?s career has taken a very different direction, becoming the first naturalised player to score in the Chinese Super League (CSL).
"It's the first in history so it's something that I can be proud of," the 25-year-old known as Li Ke in China told state television after his milestone goal Sunday for CSL leaders Beijing Guoan.
Yennaris, who signed for Beijing from Brentford in England's second tier in January for a reported ?4.95 million (US$6.5 million), is eligible to represent China because he played for England only up to under-19, not the senior side.
