“I’ve nothing to speak with him about. He has three years of his contract remaining.

Asked if he was surprised by the speculation over academy product Kane, Mourinho said: “I cannot play that game. I have to focus on what he is for us.

“Of course, I’m always pleased when my players go to national teams and do well, so I’m happy he does well with England.

“But I cannot play the game of what people say, what the people don’t say.”

Ahead of Sunday’s visit to Newcastle, Mourinho added: “I focus on what he did for us in the last match against Villa.

“I focus on the effort I saw him put on the pitch for England against Albania and Poland and I focus on the match against Newcastle.

“Scoring two, one or nil, he will be there for the team. That’s where I have to focus.”
