Tottenham boss Mourinho has ‘better hopes’ over Kane injury
Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho is hopeful that striker Harry Kane will return for the “last few games of the season”.
The England captain underwent surgery on a hamstring injury in January after suffering a ruptured tendon at Southampton on New Year’s Day and Spurs expected him to be back in training some time in April.
But he seems to be making a quicker-than-expected recovery and – ahead Sunday’s Premier League home match with Wolves – Mourinho said: “I would say he is a little bit ahead. It gives me a hope that instead of (being fit for) one or two matches, three, four, five.
“Just speculating a bit, the feelings are good. He is doing what he can do at this stage but always with a good feeling. Everything is going well.
“When he was injured I said ‘forget him’, then I said ‘one or two games’. At this moment I have better hopes than that, hopefully that feeling is right and he can help us in the last few games of the season.”
