Antonio Conte: Tottenham boss plays down food poisoning outbreak

Tottenham boss Antonio Conte says Harry Kane will be fit to play their crucial final match despite feeling unwell and reportedly missing media commitments.

Kane has been ill along with other players and staff, but Conte denied there was a food poisoning outbreak.

Fourth-placed Spurs will qualify for the Champions League if they win at Norwich City on Sunday (16:00 BST).

"In this moment, this virus is the last of our problems," said Conte. "We are close to a big achievement."

Former Tottenham forward and Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker tweeted on Friday that he had heard of a possible food poisoning outbreak at his old club.
