England will rest Harry Kane for the games against Italy and Hungary, with Tammy Abraham poised to start.
For England's forthcoming Nations League games against Italy and Hungary, Harry Kane is expected to be rested. During Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Germany, the skipper scored his 50th international goal, pushing him one goal ahead of Sir Bobby Charlton for second place on England's all-time list.
Kane is now three goals shy of Wayne Rooney's 53 goals for England, but the Tottenham star will have to wait until September to close the gap, as Gareth Southgate will start Roma's Tammy Abraham against Italy on Saturday and Hungary on Tuesday.Despite Kane's desire to play in every England match, Southgate hinted that he will rest his star striker following Tuesday's stalemate in Munich.
'We've definitely had to look after the players' wellbeing,' Southgate added. 'The way Harry looks after himself makes him a wonderful professional.'
'I'm not saying he'll get his wish to start all four games because Tammy is another player we want to see succeed.'Southgate was keen to give Roma attacker Abraham a chance to impress, according to Sportsmail, since the England manager is concerned about the lack of centre-forward options behind Kane as the World Cup approaches.
He is anticipated to make a number of changes for the Italy match, which will be played behind closed doors at Molineux as a punishment for the violent scenes that marred the Euros final at Wembley last year.
