Spurs boss wants to avoid ‘public argument’ and solve Harry Kane situation internally

Tottenham head coach Nuno Espirito Santo says the club will solve their Harry Kane problem internally rather than speak publicly about it.

The England striker did not report for pre-season tests on Monday and it later emerged he was still on holiday in Florida as he tries to force a move to Manchester City.

Speaking after a pre-season fixture against Chelsea, Nuno expressed his desire to avoid a "public argument" or discussion.

Tottenham drew 2-2 without their star man at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night.
