Roy Hodgson confirms Harry Kane will be picked for England in March

By , Reporter
Harry Kane is set for his first England call-up, confirms national manager Roy Hodgson.

England manager Roy Hodgson has said that he is "pretty sure" Harry Kane will be in his squad for games against Lithuania and Italy next month.

The 21-year-old has scored 23 times in all competitions for Tottenham Hotspur this season, and Hodgson confirmed that he has been impressed with the striker.

Hodgson told BBC Sport: "Harry Kane? He is an all-round centre forward, can play right up there against a centre back, or come off and see a pass. He's got technique, he's always looking to get on the end of crosses, that header against Arsenal was a really classy header. I thought that was a wonderful.

"If all goes well and he stays fit I'm pretty sure he'll be in the next squad.

Kane has never been called up to the senior squad before.
