England captain Harry Kane has not shown up for pre-season training for Tottenham in a bid to force through a summer move away, reports Sky Sports.
Kane was given an extended break following England's exploits at Euro 2020 but was due to report for pre-season on Monday.
The 28-year-old is a top transfer target for Manchester City and Kane believes he has an agreement with Tottenham to let him leave for an acceptable offer.
However, Kane has decided to take matters in to his own hands by sensationally not showing for training in a major blow to Tottenham.

Kane still has three years left to run on his current deal but he has made his feelings clear by skipping his first day of pre-season.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy now has an even tougher job on his hands, as City have made it clear they will not match Kane's £150m valuation.
Kane finished last season as the top scorer, top assister and top WhoScored rated player in the Premier League.
