HARRY KANE started for Tottenham in the friendly against Shakhtar Donetsk – but his potential replacement missed out.
The England captain, 30, has been the subject of multiple bids from Bayern Munich this summer.
Bayern are said to have put a deadline of midnight on Friday for Spurs chairman Daniel Levy to accept their latest offer, believed to be around £86million.
Yet there has been no development on that front more than 36 hours on and record-scorer Kane took the armband against Shakhtar in a friendly to raise funds for Ukraine.
Incoming defender Micky van de Ven, 22, was in attendance as he looks to tie up a £43m switch from Bundesliga side Wolfsburg.
Van de Ven is due to undergo a medical at Hotspur Way on Monday in a big boost to boss Ange Postecoglou who has been desperate to bolster the centre-back position.

But Richarlison, the man expected to step up if Kane does leave, was not in the squad to face Shakhtar due to a knock but is expected to return for Tuesday’s friendly in Barcelona.
Centre-forward Kane’s future remains uncertain ahead of next week’s Premier League kick-off.
The 30-year-old has entered the final year of his deal with Tottenham.
Spurs are currently refusing to sell him for less than a whopping £100m.

And the North Londoners still hope to tie him down to a new agreement that would increase his £300,000-per-week wages.
But SunSport previously reported that Kane won’t accept any new contract offers from the club.
Instead, the Tottenham academy graduate is keen on moving to Bayern this summer.
