Harry Kane has made his first public comments since the news broke that Thomas Tuchel had entered advanced discussions over the England managerial position.
With Gareth Southgate resigning his post at the end of the European Championship this summer – having reached a second successive final – Under-21s boss Lee Carsley was put in interim charge.
With three wins and a defeat in his four competitive matches at the helm, Carsley had been considered a serious contender to take on the role full-time, though he was always going to face competition.
On Tuesday, the news then broke that ex-Chelsea and Bayern Munich boss Tuchel had entered advanced talks with the Football Association over the still vacant position.
Given his status as England captain – and his relationship with Tuchel from their time together last term at Bayern Munich – Kane was understandably faced with questions about the ongoing process, but maintained he knew very little.

‘To be honest I haven’t been told anything, so until it’s announced I can’t really comment so we have to wait and see,’ he said, as reported by Sky Sports.
‘Obviously I know Thomas well from last year and (he’s a) fantastic coach, fantastic person, so I’m sure the guys at the FA will contact me when they know more about it.’
