Tottenham Hotspur face an anxious wait to discover the severity of Harry Kane’s ankle injury after he hobbled off after scoring twice in a 2-2 Premier League draw away to Everton on Friday.
Kane moved clear at the top in the race for the Premier League Golden Boot award as his brace moved him to 21 for the season.
But with Tottenham’s League Cup final against Manchester City only nine days away, the sight of him limping off in stoppage time was a huge concern.
Kane has had a history of ankle injuries and England manager Gareth Southgate will also be anxiously awaiting updates from the Tottenham medical team.
“I don’t really know much. I don’t have much to say. I don’t want to be stupidly optimistic. At the moment I don’t know. I believe tomorrow we will have more detail,” Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho said of Kane’s injury.
“For him to come out it is not because it’s nothing, it’s something. The next match is Wednesday (against Southampton), the other is Sunday (in the League Cup final), let’s see and let’s be positive.
“We all felt the same fears of something that stops him playing Wednesday and especially Sunday but we will see.”
Kane scored his goals either side of a brace for Gylfi Sigurdsson in a draw that did little for either side’s hopes of making a late charge for the top four.
