Pochettino 'positive' over Kane fitness

Harry Kane is "not too far away" from making his return from ankle injury, according to Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino.

Mauricio Pochettino has confirmed Harry Kane is close to making his Tottenham return after missing seven games with an ankle injury.

The England forward sustained ankle ligament damage after scoring the winner against Sunderland in September, and has not played since.

He returned to training this week but was not fit enough to make Spurs' matchday squad for their goalless draw with Bournemouth in the Premier League.

However, the 23-year-old could be back on the pitch very soon, with Pochettino positive about his ongoing recovery.
