Dominic Calvert-Lewin is set to be handed his England debut from the start against Wales tonight.
According to Sky Sports, the Everton hitman is set for a Three Lions bow at Wembley.
It’s hard to argue with the selection after nine goals in six games to start the season – but what does it mean for Harry Kane?
It’s certainly been a grueling opening few weeks for the England skipper.
Jose Mourinho brought Kane’s workload up last month after a hectic few weeks with Tottenham.
As per BBC, Mourinho said: “I believe Gareth and Steve [Holland] care about the players.
“I just let them do the job in the way they want to do it with the freedom they deserve. I just leave with them the respect they will have for their players. The players are our players but also theirs.”
“Hopefully, Gareth and Steve understand what happened with Tottenham this week and they respect the players.”
Some Spurs fans on Twitter feel that they’ve spotted a clue that Kane won’t be playing against Wales, because Calvert-Lewin is.
There is considerable excitement about that, with many feeling that Kane could do with the night off after a busy period of matches.
Kane usually plays when fit for club and country, but it would make sense for Southgate to give him a rest tonight, given it’s a friendly.
Some Spurs fans think that’s exactly what he’s going to do and we’ve picked out some of the best reaction.
