Bayern Munich manager, Vincent Kompany, has confirmed that Harry Kane will miss a Tottenham reunion in South Korea next month.
Tottenham take on Bayern Munich in a pre-season friendly on August 3 in Seoul as part of their tour of Japan and South Korea this summer.
When it was announced, the fixture was obviously billed as a Harry Kane derby, as he was due to face off against his boyhood club for the first time ever.
However, it appears that reunion will have to wait for a later date, as Kane won’t even be part of the Bayern Munich squad that travels to Seoul for the fixture against Spurs.
Harry Kane was perhaps always unlikely to play against Spurs on August 3, with England going into the European Championships as one of the favourites.
The Three Lions captain was due some holiday following his appearance in the final of the competition, with England falling to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Spain.
Kompany said in his press conference this week (ESPN): “Harry Kane, Alphonso Davies, Dayot Upamecano and Kingsley Coman won’t be there, but then hopefully for the first cup game.”
Fortunately, Kane will have another chance to face off against Spurs, with a second friendly fixture scheduled for the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on August 10.
Spurs Web Opinion:
I assume the whole reason Tottenham organised two friendlies with Bayern was because Harry Kane was always likely to miss the first due to his European Championship duties.
