Antonio Conte handed major Harry Kane boost ahead of Tottenham's trip to Norwich

Antonio Conte has been handed a major Tottenham boost, as football.london understands Harry Kane trained on Saturday, the day before the trip to Carrow Road. Rumours circulated on Friday over the health of the England captain, after he withdrew from a media appearance due to illness, which wasn't believed to be Covid related.

In his pre match press conference on Friday, Conte was asked whether the Spurs striker would be ok to face Norwich. "Yeah for sure," the Italian admitted.

"Also because in the last game we had Deki [Kulusevski] had this problem - he didn’t have training with us on Saturday but on Sunday he was good to play. For sure Harry doesn’t want to miss this type of game. This game means a lot for everybody."

Tottenham tweeted out a picture on Saturday, of Kane in training, however that was from a session earlier in the week. Therefore there was still some uncertainty over whether the 28-year-old would be fit enough to play in his side's final game of the season.

The fact Kane trained on Saturday, hands Conte and the whole Spurs squad a major boost ahead of the trip. Tottenham need just a point against an already relegated Norwich side, to secure Champions League football for next season.

Having one of their main key players fit enough to play, will be a major boost to all and fans will hope he can produce a solid performance to help get his side over the line.
