Harry Kane has failed to show up at Tottenham’s training ground for the second day in a row, but is expected to return this weekend.
The 28-year-old was due to return to Hotspur Way on Monday following a short holiday as speculation around his future gathers pace.

It is understood Tottenham are “disappointed” with Kane’s actions and are set to fine him, but are aware the England captain is planning to return this weekend.
Former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O’Hara says any agreement between Kane and the club for him to leave this summer should have been made formal in writing
Sky Sports News exclusively reported in May Kane had told Spurs he wanted to leave this summer with Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea interested.
Kane is valued at upwards of £120m and Tottenham are keen to keep him despite the striker believing he has a gentleman’s agreement with Daniel Levy.
