Harry Kane features in Nuno's squad list for the Europa Conference League, despite not being called up for Spurs' Premier League opener against a Man City side still waiting in the wings to complete his signing.

More news regarding Harry Kane. The England captain has entered in Tottenham's list for their Europa Conference League debut after having not played a single minute against Man City as he wasn't a part of the matchday squad.

The striker features amongst the 25 players called up by Nuno for the match against Pacos de Ferreira this Thursday, although this doesn't necessarily point towards whether he will stay at the North London club.

The new Portuguese boss justified his absence in their opening league match by explaining that he wasn't up to match fitness and hadn't participated in sufficient training sessions with the team in the lead up to the game.

Kane's inclusion in the list doesn't mean he will play in the match either, as his move to Man City is expected to progress during the week. Those who won't feature for Spurs in Europe will be Serge Aurier and Tanguy Ndombele, as they are not a part of the squad list.
