England pair likely to feature in Oslo friendly against Inter Milan on Friday

Tottenham's preparations for the new Premier League season received a boost on Tuesday with the return of England internationals Harry Kane and Dele Alli to training.

The pair - who helped fire Spurs to within 11 points of the title last campaign - joined their team-mates at Hotspur Way in Enfield for their first session since experiencing an embarrassing exit from Euro 2016 at the hands of Iceland with their country.

Spurs have missed Alli's drive and Kane's natural goalscoring ability so far during pre-season, with the side having recorded two defeats from International Champions Cup outings.

The Premier League's third-placed side during the 2015-16 season lost 2-1 against Juventus before going down 1-0 to Atletico Madrid at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Spurs, who begin their domestic season with a trip to face Everton at Goodison Park on August 13, will want to end their preparations for the season on a high with Inter Milan their final opponents in Norway's Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo on Friday afternoon.

Kane came face to face for the first time with new recruits Victor Wanyama and Vincent Jansen, who will look to partner the 23-year-old up front at White Hart Lane under Mauricio Pochettino.

The Dutchman arrived in north London for £17million from AZ Alkmaar earlier this summer after scoring 27 league goals in the Eredivisie, while Kane continued to blossom for the Lilywhites by claiming the Premier League Golden Boot with 25 goals.

Alli enjoyed a similarly productive season playing off the striker, and Pochettino will hope he can hit the ground running in the final two weeks of pre-season after running out of steam with England at the European Championship finals.

The Argentine manager has been busy streamlining his squad, with Championship club Brighton agreeing a club-record £8m deal to sign forward Alex Pritchard.

The deal comes after the youngster, along with Nabil Bentaleb and Federico Fazio, were left at home while the rest of the squad flew out to Australia on tour last week.

Tottenham freed up further space in their squad for the forthcoming season by offloading outcast Fazio to Roma in a season-long loan, with the Serie A club having the option to buy the defender for £4million.

Pochettino is reportedly keen on tempting Danny Drinkwater away from Leicester in a £20million deal, and as he put his squad through their paces on a muggy day in north London, the 44-year-old will want to strengthen his squad further before the summer transfer window closes.

Drinkwater was overlooked by former England manager Roy Hodgson during the ill-fated tournament in France, enabling Eric Dier to flourish at the base of the midfield.

Dier was another returnee on Tuesday, with the 20-year-old having featured 62 times for club and country during a draining campaign that bore Champions League football, but promised so much more.
