LONDON (AP) — England captain Harry Kane is set to miss the team's game against Greece in the Nations League on Thursday because of an injury. The striker joined up for England duty on Monday nursing an apparent leg injury, having been substituted in the second half of Bayern Munich’s 3-3 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt a day earlier. In his pre-match news conference on Wednesday, interim England coach Lee Carsley said “we won't take a chance” with Kane because he had a “small knock.

" John Stones will take over as captain, Carsley added. Carsley later said Kane could still be on the substitute's bench but definitely will not be starting, and that it's hoped the striker will be in contention for Sunday's game away to Finland. England has already beaten Ireland and Finland in Nations League qualifying.
