Tottenham Hotspur manager, Mauricio Pochettino, has admitted he may be without Harry Kane, when they travel to face Manchester United on Saturday.
Kane missed Spurs’ shock 3-2 defeat to West Ham in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday. The Premier League’s leading scorer was seemingly rested, though it appears there could have been more to his absence at Wembley.
“We’ll see, we’ll see,” Pochettino told beIN Sports when asked if Kane would face United. “We need to assess the team because we were forced to rotate for different reasons and we’ll see what happens in the next few days.”
Tottenham and United are level on 20 points after nine matches, five adrift of leaders Manchester City, though Jose Mourinho’s men are second on goal difference.
Kane has netted eight Premier League goals and 11 in his past eight matches in all competitions.
