Gary Lineker says Tottenham striker Harry Kane has serious competition for his England place in Chelsea’s Tammy Abraham

Tottenham Hotspur were held to a 1-1 draw by Sheffield United at home yesterday, with George Baldock’s 78th-minute goal cancelling out Son Heung-min’s 58th-minute opener.

Spurs have picked up just 14 points in their opening 12 Premier League games this term, and their players need to quickly step up with a top-four finish beginning to look elusive.

Harry Kane fired blanks against the Blades, although it was no fault of his as he was provided with very little service.

However, Match of the Day presenter and former Tottenham striker Gary Lineker reckons he now has stiff competition for his starting berth in England in Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham.
