Harry Kane remains optimistic about his fitness ahead of England's European Championship campaign, despite his recent absence from Bayern Munich's lineup due to a back injury.
The striker sustained the injury during Bayern's Champions League semi-final loss to Real Madrid, prompting his withdrawal from the team. While Kane missed Bayern's final home fixture against Wolfsburg, his camp insists that the decision was precautionary, with assurances that he will be fully fit for Euro 2024 barring any further setbacks.
Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel clarified that Kane's substitution against Real Madrid was necessitated by his back issue, which also ruled him out of the Wolfsburg match.
Although Kane was absent from the pitch, he attended Bayern's last home game of the season alongside his family, expressing gratitude to the fans for their support throughout the season.
Kane is set to miss England's warm-up match against Bosnia, originally scheduled for June 3, had Bayern advanced to the Champions League final. However, his availability for subsequent friendlies against Bosnia and Iceland remains intact, as he gears up for Euro 2024.
England's preparations for the tournament kick off on June 10, with their first match against Serbia slated for June 16. Kane's prolific season, amassing 44 goals for Bayern and a total of 48 for club and country, underscores his significance to the English squad.
