Bavaria’s super striker Harry Kane threatens to miss the upcoming friendly of the English national team.
Working about Harry Kane! The use of the Captain of Three Lions for the friendly game against Wales on Thursday is questionable. This reports “Sky Sports”.
Kane has problems with an ankle injury and did not train with the team of head coach Thomas Tuchel on Wednesday. The Bayern attacker trained individually in the English training area.
The center forward is currently in top form. The 32-year-old has scored ten times in ten competitive games for FC Bayern. With 74 goals into the 109 international matches, he is also the record goal scorer of the English. In the Bundesliga game against Eintracht Frankfurt (3-0), he had slightly injured his ankle and had to be replaced prematurely.
“I’m ok, I only had one contact. It is a job where I got a blow. But that will work in the next few days, I will be with the national team on Monday,” he said after the game.
Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa), Marcus Rashford (FC Barcelona), Jarrod Bowen (West Ham United) and Anthony Gordon (Newcastle United) are available as a replacement in the English storm.
In the World Cup qualification, England meets Latvia
Next Tuesday, England will meet Latvia in the World Cup qualification. With a victory and protective help of Albania and Andorra against Serbia, the team could already make the World Cup ticket clear.
Meanwhile, coach Tuchel made headlines with the non -nomination of Jude Bellingham.
Discussions about Bellingham and Tuchel
The German is the “man with the ax”, “the unscrupulous Tuchel”, it said in the English media when the national coach spurned the best footballer on the island. Because Tuchel, among other things, star player Jude Bellingham did not refer to his contingent for the upcoming international matches, he is once again the focus of criticism.
“He is a special player, and there can be special rules for special players. But this time we wanted to stay with the same group that worked so well in September,” said Tuchel.
The professional from Real Madrid missed the World Cup qualification in September because of a shoulder injury. Now that this has been cured, a return to the national team really seemed to stand in the way – but Tuchel did without him again.
