The 31-year-old was forced off in Bayern's 3-3 draw with Eintracht at the weekend, raising fears he could be set for a spell on the sidelines. Ahead of the former Tottenham man being part of England's Nations League double-header, Bayern have given the forward the all clear.

WHAT BAYERN MUNICH SAID
A statement from the club reads: "The examination by the doctors of the English national football team has shown that Harry Kane does not have a structural injury. The FC Bayern striker, who was substituted due to an injury in the Bundesliga match against Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday evening, will therefore remain in the English FA's selection for the upcoming international matches."
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Kane has been back amongst the goals for Bayern this season, scoring 10 times in just nine matches for the Bundesliga outfit. And if he is to continue his hot-streak, the England skipper needs to be fit and well-rested. He has also scored six goals for England in 11 games in 2024 - showing how important he is for the Three Lions.
