Antonio Conte has revealed that Harry Kane is running into the World Cup on empty.
Spurs’ boss claimed England ’s skipper is fatigued after a hectic club schedule finally took its toll on the country's No. 1 striker. Kane pulled himself out of a training session ahead of last night’s trip to Nottingham Forest and produced a lacklustre show as Conte’s men slumped to a 2-0 defeat.
And the Italian praised the striker’s commitment to Spurs’ cause - but suggested that he’s tired ahead of the trip to Qatar. He managed just under an hour at the City Ground but looked a pale shadow of the player who lifted the Golden Boot at the last tournament in Russia.
