Harry Kane has spoken out for the first time since Tottenham Hotspur parted ways with Antonio Conte during the international break.
The Italian left Spurs after 16 months by 'mutual consent' having spent 16 months in charge. His exit came after his explosive post-match press conference outburst following the 3-3 draw with Southampton.
Conte's assistant, Cristian Stellini, has been named as acting head coach for the remainder of the season alongside former Spurs midfielder Ryan Mason.

On Monday night, Spurs face Everton in their first game without Conte. The north Londoners know they must end their run of only one win in their previous five games if they are to secure Champions League football for next season.
And speaking ahead of the clash with the Toffees, Kane was quizzed on Conte's rant at Southampton by Sky Sports. "He had his opinions on the matter and obviously it was an emotional moment after what was a disappointing end to that game so I don't want to get into it too much," Kane explained.
"We are focused on trying to achieve the top four and we cannot look in the past. We have to start now and look ahead to these games ahead of us and that is what we will try and do."
Spurs still have to face Newcastle, Man United and Liverpool before the end of the season. Missing out on a top four place could result in Kane's time at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium finally coming to an end amid speculation surrounding his future.
