Mauricio Pochettino says he is happy with Harry Kane's progress as he recovers from an ankle injury, but offered no update on his return date.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino says the club are pleased with how Harry Kane is recovering from injury.

The striker has been out since injuring his ankle against Manchester United last month - but has posted a video on social media which shows that he is already back in light training.

Asked if Kane might be back sooner than the early March date which was originally suggested, Pochettino said: "I cannot tell you if he is ahead of the schedule or not. We assess him day by day.

"He is showing on social media that he looks very strong and very fit, running and doing some exercises.

Spurs captain Hugo Lloris says the team have made huge strides and could get new energy when they move into their new stadium.

"He is very strong and will put in 200 per cent to try and return as soon as possible.

"We need to assess but we are happy in the way that he is recovering."

Dele Alli is also on the mend recovering well from a hamstring injury suffered against Fulham.
