Kane fails to travel with Spurs

LONDON. — Harry Kane has not travelled with the Tottenham squad to Portugal for their Europa Conference League play-off tie with Pacos de Ferreira. 

Kane was named in Spurs’ 25-man Conference League squad, but the England captain will stay at home to work on his fitness, as his team-mates head to Portugal. 

The forward’s participation in the competition would not stop him taking part in the Champions League this season should a move to Manchester City materialise.

Kane trained with his Tottenham team-mates for the first time this season on Tuesday morning, after completing his period of isolation. 

He had been staying at Spurs’ training ground hotel, The Lodge, after coming back to the UK from his holiday in the Bahamas, via Florida. 

He was unable to join his team-mates as they prepared to face City in their Premier League opener on Sunday due to isolation requirements, and he will have to wait to make his first appearance of the season a while longer yet. 

City had a £100m offer for Kane turned down earlier this summer, and manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed he does want to sign the striker. 

Kane told Spurs at the end of last season that he wants to leave the club this summer in a bid to compete more regularly for major trophies and believes he has a gentleman’s agreement with chairman Daniel Levy to do so. — Sky Sports.
