Harry Kane's three children were hospitalized for precautionary measures following their involvement in a car accident.

According to German publication Bild, a 20-year-old driver operating a Renault collided with the back of a black Mercedes Vito van while attempting to enter a slip road on the highway.

Three out of Kane's four children—Louis, aged three, Vivienne, aged five, and Ivy, aged seven, were passengers in the black van involved in the collision and were subsequently taken to the hospital.

Fortunately, none of them were injured, and Mirror Football reports that they were taken to the hospital for a standard check-up.

Kane's wife, Katie, and their youngest child, seven-month-old Henry, are believed not to have been in the vehicle at the time.

A spokesperson for Kane said via BBC:

"They are fine and only went to hospital for a routine check-up."

The Mercedes was driven by a 24-year-old local woman, while the Renault carried passengers aged three, 43, and 48.

A 62-year-old woman driving a Land Rover was also part of the incident. All eight individuals involved in the accident were transported to the hospital, with some sustaining minor injuries.

Kane ‘lucky’ to escape red

Meanwhile, during the Arsenal game, Kane striker caught defender Gabriel with an elbow to the neck during a duel, and Swedish referee, Glenn Nyberg, showed only a yellow card for the incident.

The former Tottenham Hotspur forward protested his innocence, claiming it was an accidental challenge, but the Gunners fans wanted him to be shown his marching orders.
