England captain Harry Kane is struggling with a back injury less than a month out from the European Championship, with Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel confirming he will miss the final game of the season.
Kane was forced to sit out Bayern’s last Bundesliga match against Wolfsburg on May 12, and will be absent from their trip to Hoffenheim on Saturday.

Tuchel said Kane was struggling with the injury in the run-up to Bayern’s Champions League semifinal against Real Madrid on May 8 but played through the pain.
“Harry is receiving treatment from his personal doctor,” Tuchel said on Friday.
“He cannot travel. He was already at the limit in Madrid. He had a complete blockade in his back, it’s gotten worse and bothers him in everyday movements.”
