Jose’s latest on Harry Kane

Jose Mourinho reported that Harry Kane suffered injuries to both ankles as he was forced off at half-time in our 3-1 defeat against Liverpool on Thursday night.

The striker injured his right ankle in a challenge with Thiago and needed treatment after 12 minutes, but appeared to be coping with that problem when he went down again following a challenge with Jordan Henderson, this time injuring his left ankle. He struggled to overcome this one and although he made it to half-time, didn’t appear for the second half.

Jose said: “It’s two ankles, not one, two. He was coping with one, he couldn’t cope with both. Clearly, he’s a guy with good spirit, good sacrifice, so for Harry to say, ‘no chance’ for the second half, we know that it’s not a simple one.”
