Three of Harry Kane's children in car crash in Germany

The three eldest children of former Spurs star Harry Kane were hospitalised after a car crash in Germany.

The three-vehicle crash happened on Monday (April 8) at around 5.15pm near Munich, where Kane now leads the line for Bayern.

Bavarian Police said a Renault with four people inside was turning into a junction on the state road 2071 in Schaftlarn when it collided with the Mercedes, which was carrying Kane’s three children, aged between three and seven.

The Renault then collided with a second car, a Land Rover.

A total of nine people were injured in the crash, with the local volunteer fire chief saying all passengers and rivers were “very lucky” that no one was seriously injured.

A spokesperson for Kane confirmed that the children were not seriously harmed in the crash, saying: "They are fine and only went to hospital for a routine check-up."

The Mercedes was being driven by a 24-year-old woman at the time of the crash. Local police have opened an investigation into the road traffic incident.

Neither Kane, his wife or his seven-month-old child Henry were in the car at the time.

The incident came only a day before the England captain played Arsenal at the Emirates in London.
