Doubts were raised over Kane's participation in his national team's upcoming friendly matches after Bayern Munich manager, Thomas Tuchel, only confirmed that the striker had twisted his ankle.
Subsequently, Bayern said Kane, 30, would still join up with England for international duty. BBC noted the German club's stance.
