A football-obsessed headmaster has vowed to rename his school after the England football captain Harry Kane if the Three Lions win the World Cup.
Howard Junior School in Norfolk will become Harry Kane Junior if the men's football team wins the global tournament.
The school will be temporarily renamed during the World Cup series which starts on November 20 in Qatar.
Gregory Hill, the school's head teacher, said on a Twitter post: "Howard is gone, Harry Kane is in. We're right behind England.
"We're going to make sure England wins the World Cup through all our cheer and good spirits.
"If England win we're changing our name permanently to Harry Kane Junior School... Go, Harry, go England!"

Each pupil will also have specially designed school badges with the new name along with Harry Kane's picture.
Pupils will also be allowed to watch the men's opening game against Iran on Monday at 1pm.
The school is also said to be planning to have lion costumes, banners and decorations throughout the school.
One teacher has been said to look like England football manager Gareth Southgate so has dressed up like him and walks around with a life-sized cardboard cut out of the man.
Gregory said: "Football is all about learning about different cultures and respect and has a really good drive on anti-racism too.
"Harry Kane is an excellent role model for students and an ambassador of many charities."
Despite England not having won the World Cup since 1966 the head teacher is optimistic.
He said: "If we win now, no child will see this again in their lifetime, so why not go for it and have a tribute to Harry Kane?"

Gregory went to the same primary school as the England Captain and grew up in the same area as David Beckham, according to him, which sparked his enthusiasm for the sport.
Earlier today, football fans travelling to Qatar suffered a massive blow to their trip after being told that beer would no longer be sold in the stadiums.
FIFA have confirmed beer will not be sold at stadiums during the World Cup after a U-turn on the eve of the tournament - sparking fury from fans who have forked out thousands to attend games.
The governing body came under pressure from the Qatari royal family to ban all alcohol sales despite long-standing insistence products would be sold at games. FIFA have now confirmed they will stop selling Budweiser, one of the organisation's biggest sponsors, at eight different stadiums, breaching a multi-million dollar contract in the process.
A statement read: "Following discussions between host country authorities and FIFA, a decision has been made to focus the sale of alcoholic beverages on the FIFA Fan Festival, other fan destinations and licensed venues, removing sales points of beer from Qatar's FIFA World Cup 2022- stadium perimeters.
"There is no impact on the sale of Bud Zero which will remain available at all Qatar's World Cup stadiums. Host country authorities and FIFA will continue to ensure that the stadiums and surrounding areas provide an enjoyable, respectful and pleasant experience for all fans.
"The tournament organisers appreciate AB InBev's understanding and continuous support to our joint commitment to cater for everyone during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022."
