Bayern offers positive update on Kane injury
Bayern Munich offered a positive update on Harry Kane's status after the striker sustained an ankle injury in the 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen.
The England captain, who did not register a single shot during the match despite Bayern dominating, was injured in a collision late on at Allianz Arena, where Aleksandar Pavlovic cancelled out Robert Andrich's earlier effort.
Bayern coach Vincent Kompany was hopeful Kane would be fit to feature against Aston Villa in the UEFA Champions League this week.
Bayern released a statement confirming tests run on Kane had revealed no significant damage, and that the 31-year-old would "continue to receive appropriate treatment", but it did not confirm whether the forward will be fit to face Villa.
Kane suffered the knock in a robust challenge from Amine Adli.
Speaking to reporters after the match, Kane said: "Sometimes there have been red cards for something like that.
"I'm OK, but it's a bit sore. I think it's OK. It doesn't feel too bad at the moment. We'll assess that in the next few days, but I don't think I'll be out for long."
