Antonio Conte has claimed that Harry Kane is 'really, really tired' less than a week before England begin preparations for the World Cup. The Three Lions are set to fly out to Qatar in the next few days and Gareth Southgate has been handed a fresh dilemma.
Kane has featured 21 times for Tottenham across all competitions this season, directly contributing towards 15 goals. While his impressive displays have guided Spurs into the top-four of the Premier League, the myriad of first-team minutes have begun to take its toll on the 29-year-old striker according to the Italian boss.
He's started every game for the north Londoners this term, including Tottenham's defeat to Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night, November 9. Kane was replaced by Bryan Gil with half an hour to play after failing to find the breakthrough.
