Spurs saw their talismanic striker injured on a tough New Year's Day as they went down to the Saints on the road
Tottenham head coach Jose Mourinho was not optimistic as he waited to learn the extent of Harry Kane's hamstring injury.
The Spurs striker - their stand-in captain in the absence of Hugo Lloris - pulled up as he scored a goal against Southampton on New Year's Day that was subsequently ruled out for offside.
Kane had to be substituted, nursing his left hamstring, and Mourinho had not been updated on his status before his post-match news conference.
