Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino says that striker Harry Kane is "hungry to score" after returning from an ankle injury.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino has said that striker Harry Kane is "hungry to score" after returning from an ankle injury.

England international Kane came on as a second-half substitute in Spurs' 3-1 victory over Chelsea last weekend following a short spell on the sidelines.

Pochettino has revealed that the forward has been working hard to regain his fitness since appearing briefly last time out.

"He is okay after playing nearly 20 minutes against Chelsea. This week was good, he is working hard," the Argentine told a press conference.

"We need to see him in one more training session but he is doing very good.

"Of course, the expectation for him is to score goals. He is hungry to score."

Kane is expected to play a part in Tottenham's Premier League match against Stoke City on Saturday.
