England captain Harry Kane to scan ankle injury

England captain Harry Kane to scan ankle injury

England captain Harry Kane is expected to undergo a scan on his injured ankle today.

The Tottenham hotspur attacker was substituted in the 76th minute in the Three Lions 6-2 emphatic victory over Iran on Monday.

The England captain provided the assist for their third goal – finding Chelsea forward, Raheem Sterling with a well-timed cross into the box.

England boss Gareth Southgate termed the forward’s withdrawal from the game – ‘a precaution’.

Kane did not take part in the open training session on Tuesday as he was spotted wearing a strapping around his ankle while leaving the stadium after their Group B opener.

The 29-year-old is not a stranger to ankle injuries having previously missed 14 games in the 2016/17 season for his club side.
