'The news is pretty good' - Kane confident of swift return from injury, says Mourinho

Harry Kane is confident of a swift return from injury, according to Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho, who says the "news is pretty good" with regards to his recovery time.

Kane missed Tottenham's 1-0 loss at Brighton on Sunday night after damaging both his ankles during a heavyweight Premier League clash against Liverpool three days earlier.

The England international was forced to come off at half-time during the 3-1 defeat, with Mourinho revealing post-match that the striker would be sidelined for at least a "few weeks".
