Kane injured his ankle during his team, Bayern Munich’s 5-2 victory over Darmstadt last Saturday in the twenty-sixth round of the German League, and there will be no risk of including him in the match against Brazil at Wembley Stadium.
It is possible that Kane’s absence will affect the match against Belgium on Tuesday, also at the same stadium.
The match against Belgium will be the last for the Three Lions before coach Gareth Southgate announces his squad for the European Cup finals, and there is no doubt about the former Tottenham striker’s participation in the continental tournament scheduled between June 14 and July 14.
Ajax’s Dutch midfielder, Jordan Henderson, and Chelsea striker, Cole Palmer, will remain with the national team, but they will not participate in the match against Brazil, which sold out all tickets, due to injury.
Arsenal star Bukayo Saka withdrew from the squad on Thursday due to injury as well.
Southgate confirmed the absence of Harry Kane, Jordan Henderson and Cole Palmer from the match.
He added, “I can say that Cole and Hendo have a better chance of playing against Belgium than Kane. His participation will be very doubtful.”
Before traveling to Germany to compete in the continental finals in Group C alongside Serbia, Denmark and Slovenia, England is scheduled to play two more warm-up matches against Bosnia and Iceland on the third and seventh of June.
