Gary Lineker Discusses Harry Kane Ankle 'Weakness,' Tottenham Hotspur Future

Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Gary Lineker fears Harry Kane has a "weakness" in his ankle that is the cause of his recurring injuries and hopes he'll stay at Spurs when a club like Real Madrid tries to land him at some point in the future.

Lineker spoke to Goal's Kevin Palmer about Spurs' new star forward, saying he believes there's a weakness leading to his ankle injuries but it could be worse:

"It is always a worry when you get a recurring injury and there is clearly a little weakness in there.

"No player wants to have an injury that keeps cropping up, but ankles are not as bad as having a recurring calf problem or a hamstring issue, as they can be hard to overcome.
