HARRY Kane and his team-mates found time to take a break from their last-minute Champions League preparations to cuddle up to their loved ones as they watched Spurs train in Madrid. Kane, who has been rushed back to fitness, looked ready and relaxed as he gave fiancee Katie Goodland a kiss during one of the final training sessions before tonight's big kick-off. Kieran Trippier, Toby Alderweireld and Fernando Llorente also shared a precious moment with their other halves and children after being put through their paces at the Wanda Metropolitano stadium. It is no surprise that they were lapping up the experience ahead of Tottenham's first European Cup final since the Uefa Cup win over Anderlecht in 1984. The wives and partners sat in the stands as Mauricio Pochettino cast a final eye on his stars ahead of one of the toughest decisions of his career. Poch will have to decide whether he starts star man Kane with the England striker set to feature for the first time since Spurs' win over Man City on April 9. It has been 52 days since he hobbled off injured after rolling his left ankle following a challenge by Fabian Delph. The Argentine coach could leave him on the bench and save his legs for a final 20-minute spurt when Spurs might need something special in Madrid. Kane, 25, has declared himself fit but Poch admits his decision to big his starting XI is far from easy. He said: "It is not easy, but it was difficult in the quarter-final, the semi-final and the last 16 to make decisions. “We have all the information, we know every detail. These decisions are painful and you can only choose 11. “It is a tough decision, it is painful . . . but it is my job.” Mauricio Pochettino wants to write Spurs into the history books and discusses the difficult decisions ahead with Harry Kane and his team selection
