In the 4-1 defeat to Liverpool last week, Harry Kane showed signs of running slowly but still played until almost the end of the match and was only substituted in the 88th minute.
In a press conference before the new match on the afternoon of October 27, Spurs head coach - Pochettino affirmed that he did not want to take a risk with Harry Kane to avoid unpredictable consequences.
"We will not take any risks to play Kane tomorrow in the match against Manchester United. The club will wait for the next signal on 4th but for sure, Kane will not play tomorrow," Pochettino shared.
The injury the 24-year-old Spurs striker suffered was determined to be the tendon of his left leg. Not only Kane, another important player of the "Roosters", Victor Wanyama, is also uncertain to be in the starting lineup for the upcoming match because he has not been tested and tested for the last time.
After the match with M.U, Tottenham will have a second leg of the Champions League group stage against Real Madrid at home. If Kane cannot return in time, Spurs and coach Pochettino do not know who to replace him with.
M.U and Tottenham are sharing 2nd and 3rd place in the rankings with the same 20 points. If M.U passes, Tottenham will miss the opportunity to break away and chase Man City. The reason why Harry Kane is important for Tottenham is because since the beginning of the season, he has scored 8 goals in 9 matches in the Premier League.
The match between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur in round 10 of the Premier League will take place at 6:30 p.m. on October 28 at Old Trafford.
