Harry Kane's ankle scan will not take place until Tuesday at the earliest as he waits for swelling on the joint to subside.

Mauricio Pochettino fears Kane could be out for weeks after Tottenham's top scorer rolled his right ankle under a challenge from Jake Cooper during Tottenham's FA Cup quarter-final win over Millwall on Sunday.

Kane missed 10 games earlier this season after injuring the same ankle, and Pochettino said after the Millwall game the problem appeared "similar".
