England interim head coach Lee Carsley has attempted to play down Harry Kane 's criticism of the squad's long list of absentees for this month's internationals, repeatedly insisting that he is only focused on the players who have reported for duty.

Harry Kane says he is disappointed by the high number of withdrawals from the England squad this week, insisting the national team must come first.

Harry Kane hit out at some of his England team-mates after eight players withdrew from the squad for their two upcoming UEFA Nations League matches.
