Harry Kane has claimed that the rehabilitation related to his ankle injury is going well as he hopes to make a speedy recovery. The Tottenham star injured ankle ligaments in the 1-0 defeat to Manchester United and has been out of action since.
The England captain is expected to return in March and provided an update on the next steps in his recovery while speaking to Sky Sports (h/t Mirror):
“It’s going well. I went away for some warm weather training and we’re stepping it up, [we will] see next week how we go, start to get the balls out and just see how the ankle reacts.
“It’s going well so far but we have just got to take our time with it and make sure we get it right.”
Tottenham have missed the striker but recent results have been positive. Son Heung-min’s return from the Asian Cup is a timely boost for the team, and we have picked up three late wins in the Premier League over the past couple of weeks.
Spurs have a tough fixture list in the coming weeks with the Champions League round of 16 ties against Borussia Dortmund and two London derbies. Kane was asked about when he could return, but the England captain didn’t share a firm date:
“I never put a time on any of my injuries.
“It is just about how it feels. The ankle feels great at the moment, so as long as the swelling stays away and we can keep progressing that would be great.”
Spurs are still in with a shout of finishing the season on a high as we stay in the race for the Premier League.

Should we stay close to Liverpool and Manchester City until Kane’s return, the Englishman could fire us to a first Premier League crown.
