THE SHARPE END: The spotlight is on Ivan Toney and Dominic Solanke as Gareth Southgate looks for the perfect Harry Kane understudy ahead of England's Euro 2024 campaign

With a European Championships coming into view, the auditions are open for who plays second fiddle to England captain Harry Kane this summer.

Two of the key contenders take to the floor this weekend. Ivan Toney returned from his eight-month ban on Saturday and scored Brentford’s first goal in their 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest.

He’s the last person not named Harry Kane to score 20 goals in a Premier League season. Callum Wilson and Ollie Watkins, both bustling for a place in the squad for Germany, have got close but never managed it.
