Harry Kane returned to full training with Tottenham Hotspur on Monday and could make his return from injury against Burnley this weekend.
The English man missed Spurs last seven matches with ankle ligament injury which he suffered in 1-0 home defeat to Manchester United on January 13. He was expected to be out until mid-March, but his recovery has been quicker than expected.
Kane is likely to start on the bench for the trip to Turf Moor and hopes he will get some game time ahead of two vital London derbies against Chelsea and Arsenal next week. His return from injury comes at a critical time for Tottenham as they look to close the gap on Manchester City and Liverpool at the top of the Premier League. Spurs are currently five points adrift of leaders.
Meanwhile, Dele Alli also remains sidelines with hamstring problem and he could be in line to make his return in the return leg with Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League next month, although they already have a 3-0 aggregate lead.
