Bayern confirmed on Sunday that Kane was suffering from an ankle injury, but did not provide details on its severity.
“The striker is still on international duty with England and will be treated there by the team doctors, in close collaboration with the FC Bayern medical department,” the club said in a statement.
England host Brazil at Wembley Stadium on March 23, followed by Belgium, also at home, three days later.
Bayern also announced that full-back Raphaël Guerreiro had been left out of the Portugal squad due to a “slight muscle strain in his upper left thigh”. Portugal is scheduled to play friendlies against Sweden on March 21 and Slovenia on March 26.
