Harry Kane confident he'll be fit for Euro 2020

England captain Harry Kane is confident he'll be fit for the Euro 2020 finals this summer as he continues to recover from a hamstring injury.

The Tottenham striker hasn't played since tearing his hamstring on New Year's Day and he was expected to be sidelined until the end of the season.

But Kane, who recently returned to light training, hopes to be back playing for Spurs "somewhere between the start and middle of April":

"In my head, I am definitely at the Euros," he told The Evening Standard.

"Unless something pretty drastic happens between now and then, I'll be there. I'm still not back training with the first team, but I'm working hard in the gym, I'm getting stronger all the time.

"We're talking a few more weeks, and I'll be playing again. I don't want to make a prediction for which game I might be back, but I am hoping somewhere between the start and the middle of April."

Earlier England manager Gareth Southgate expressed his belief that both Kane and Marcus Rashford will be fit for the finals:

"Both players will give themselves the best possible chance of being available, that's their mentality and that's their dedication to their sport.

"That's the only bit we can guarantee, what we can't guarantee is how that rehab will develop as it's stepped up and as it becomes more intense, but they are both on track from the information we were given at the very start."
