Tottenham

<p>Tottenham were left "worried" by Kane's relationship with Dr Alejandro Elorriaga Claraco towards the end of his time with the north London club as he tried to find a solution to his recurrent ankle issues, according to the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-14053401/How-Arsenal-Chelsea-Tottenham-rocked-injuries-suffered-specialist-personal-trainers-Crystal-Palace-investigate-Eddie-Nketiah-issue-plus-latest-Jarrad-Branthwaite-Man-United-SAMI-MOKBEL-COLUMN.html" target="_blank">Daily Mail</a>. Claraco apparently recommended "certain adjustments" to Kane which were not appreciated by the medical staff at Tottenham. Kane did not meet with the Canadian-based sports medicine specialist at Tottenham’s HQ in Enfield, as it was made clear he was not welcome, with the club concerned about losing control of their star striker's "well-being".</p><p></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Kane has a history of ankle injuries that have interrupted his career at various points. His first occurred in 2016 when he was ruled out for seven weeks, and he suffered another, similar lay-off at the end of the 2018-19 campaign. The England striker spoke about his work with Claraco in 2022, praising the physio for the work he had done and the improvement he felt had been made.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>He told <em>The Athletic</em>: "I’ve seen changes in my body in terms of what my ankles were like before and now, after. I’m in a totally different place, so it’s really pleasing.”</p><p><strong></strong></p>

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

<p>Kane left Tottenham for Bayern in summer 2023 but has still been affected by ankle injuries. He <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/harry-kane-injury-bayern-munich-striker-limps-off-bundesliga-draw-bayer-leverkusen/bltd1bbd0bf077425c0" target="_blank">limped out of Bayern's 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen in September</a> with a knock to his ankle but was able to return in the team's next game against Aston Villa in the Champions League.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Bayern and Kane are due to take on Bundesliga strugglers St Pauli on Saturday. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/lee-carsley-england-fans-slam-inclusion-three-lions-squad-thomas-tuchel-told-to-take-over-already/blt4639d6d8678b3888" target="_blank">Kane will then link up with the England squad</a> for Nations League fixtures against Greece and Ireland.</p><p></p>
