Harry Kane's injury more serious than expected: striker to miss several matches
Harry Kane sustained an injury during the match against Borussia Dortmund, and subsequent examinations revealed that it is more severe than initially thought.
Details. According to Kicker, Bayern Munich conducted medical tests on the England striker on Sunday morning. Kane has suffered a 'minor' hamstring strain in the back of his right thigh, which will sideline him for several matches.
It has been confirmed that he will miss the DFB-Pokal Round of 16 clash against reigning champions Bayer Leverkusen in Leverkusen on Tuesday.
Context. Bayern manager Vincent Kompany had earlier expressed hope that Kane’s injury was not too serious, even suggesting that the forward might be able to participate in the match against Bayer in the German Cup. However, those hopes have now been dashed.
