Harry Kane is fit for England’s upcoming Nations League double-header against Greece and Finland, but Kobbie Mainoo withdraws along with two others in a triple-blow against interim Three Lions boss Lee Carsley

Harry Kane has been declared fit for England’s Nations League double-header against Greece and Finland, but Kobbie Mainoo has been forced to withdraw.

Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa and Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White have also withdrawn from Lee Carsley’s side, with the interim head coach deciding not to replace his withdrawal at this time.

Captain Kane has been cleared to remain with the national team at St George’s Park after suffering ankle and groin problems during the weekend match against Eintracht Frankfurt.

The news will be a major boost for Carsley, who will be aiming to maintain his 100 per cent record since replacing Gareth Southgate at the helm as he looks to win the boss’ job on a permanent basis.

However, the withdrawal of Manchester United star Mainoo will come as a blow.

The central midfielder appeared to have a hamstring problem during the defeat to Tottenham on September 29, but played 85 minutes of Sunday’s goalless draw against Aston Villa.

It is clear that Mainoo’s withdrawal is precautionary.

Konsa also suffered a hamstring injury during the match at Villa Park, while Gibbs-White was forced off in the 1-1 draw against Chelsea with a suspected knee problem.
