HARRY KANE gave England an injury scare as he was forced off in Bayern Munich’s dramatic 3-3 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt.

The Three Lions‘ skipper needed 72nd-minute treatment and was replaced by Mathys Tel – days ahead of two Nations League ties.

England face Greece at Wembley on Thursday and take on Finland away next Sunday.

It comes after Kane hurt his ankle late in a 1-1 home draw with Bayern Leverkusen Saturday week ago.

However, the Bayern striker shrugged off that knock to play all of Wednesday’s 1-0 Champions League loss at Aston Villa.

Now England interim chief Lee Carsley is waiting to find how serious Kane’s new problem is.

The 31-year-old notchedd an assist as Bayern fought back from 2-1 down to lead 3-2 in the Bundesliga on Sunday.

But four minutes into stoppage time Eintracht’s Egyptian striker Omar Marmoush bagged his second goal of a thriller to nick a point.

Last week Kane had what Bayern called “intensive” medical attention to successfully ensure his fitness for Villa Park.

And although he has already joined England’s 100-cap club, he’s particularly keen to add to his haul of 68 international goals.

But if Kane is less than fully fit, it could hand a chance to Tottenham’s Dominic Solanke.

The ex-Bournemouth forward has been recalled by Carsley seven years after he won his only Three Lions cap.

Solanke bagged an assist as Spurs led 2-0 at Brighton on Sunday.

But despite playing all the game, he was powerless to stop Brighton roaring back after the break for a 3-2 victory.
