Harry Kane starts for Tottenham in their penultimate pre-season friendly against Shakhtar Donetsk today.
With only two friendlies under their belt under Ange Postecoglou, Spurs may have some catching-up to do in terms of building up match sharpness.
Shakhtar head to north London this weekend for a friendly which will raise funds for the victims of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, before Tottenham fly to Barcelona for the Joan Gamper Trophy match just 48 hours later.
