Harry Kane hopes Tottenham’s focus being on the Premier League alone can be an advantage (Tim Goode/PA)Harry Kane hopes Tottenham can benefit from only having the Premier League to focus on once the season resumes. Spurs have nine games to try and force their way into the Champions League places, which could be as low as fifth if Manchester City’s appeal against their European ban is rejected. All of their rivals have other things to play for with Manchester United in the FA Cup and Europa League, Chelsea in the FA Cup and Champions League, Wolves in the Europa League and Sheffield United in the FA Cup. “So at least all our focus is going to be on one competition.”Kane will be fit to resume following six months off with a serious hamstring injury. One of their players is understood to have tested positive for coronavirus in the last round of Premier League testing, though his identity has not been revealed.
