"Captain Harry Kane will be available for England as they aim to secure World Cup qualification in Latvia on Tuesday. Kane missed the 3-0 friendly win over Wales on Thursday with an ankle injury he sustained playing for Bayern Munich. He returned to training over the weekend and will be available for selection as England search for the victory that would seal their place at next summer's World Cup in North America."
""It's very easy with Harry, he can play, he is fit," coach Thomas Tuchel said. "We did the right thing. Top in training and ready to go. "And I don't see why he should not be able to play 90 minutes. The pause was just a short pause for him. He played all matches before with Bayern, so I don't see any obstacles there." Kane's return is timely after Ollie Watkins pulled out of the match due to an injury picked up against Wales, having replaced his captain in the starting XI."
