Tottenham star ​Kane: I visited Pochettino house after news broke

Harry Kane admitted that he went to Mauricio Pochettino's house after hearing about his sacking.

Many Tottenham fans were shocked when they learned the news about the Argentine coach losing his job last week.

And it appears that Kane wanted to see Pochettino in person to talk about the club's decision, and presumably to say his goodbyes.

"I went round to his house and caught up with him the next day," said the England captain to reporters.

"It was a shock for everyone so I wanted to go and see him, and we had a chat for a couple of hours. It was nice to do that before the new manager came in.

"It's a week I've never really had in my career before. It was a big shock on Tuesday night for everyone, the players included, and then it was a quick turnaround.

"All of a sudden we've got a new manager - one of the best managers there's been in the game - so you automatically have to turn your head towards that and focus on the game."
