Spurs star Kane in doubt for Man United clash – Pochettino
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino said star Harry Kane is not sure of facing Manchester United on Saturday after missing the Carabao Cup midweek.
Kane, was on the bench in Tottenham's shock 3-2 loss to West Ham on Wednesday, having inspired Spurs against Real Madrid and Liverpool.
The Premier League's leading scorer - in a race of a third consecutive Golden Boot - was benched, though it appears there could have been more to Kane's absence at Wembley ahead of Tottenham's blockbuster trip to Old Trafford.
"We'll see, we'll see," Pochettino told beIN Sports when asked if Kane would face United after Spurs surrendered a 2-0 half-time lead against West Ham.
"We need to assess the team because we were forced to rotate for different reasons and we'll see what happens in the next few days."
Tottenham and United are level on 20 points after nine matches, five adrift of leaders Manchester City, though Jose Mourinho's men are second on goal difference.
