Danny Rose has said that Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane will not join Mauricio Pochettino at Chelsea in the summer transfer window.
The former Tottenham Hotspur left-back has said on talkSPORT that Chelsea will not be able to sign Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window.
Rose has noted that Chelsea and Tottenham are bitter London rivals.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy will not sell the £200,000-a-week (TalkSPORT) striker to the Blues.
The Englishman has added that Kane himself will not be on leaving for Chelsea, knowing that it will tarnish his legacy at Tottenham.
90min reported in June that Tottenham thought that Chelsea would try to sign the England international when Mauricio Pochettino was appointed their manager.
The Independent reported in May that Pochettino had discussed with the Chelsea bosses the prospect of bringing Kane to Stamford Bridge in the summer of 2023.
Pochettino worked with Kane, as well as with Rose, at Tottenham.
Kane is out of contract at Tottenham next summer and has decided not to sign a new deal, according to The Times.
Bayern Munich are reportedly determined to sign the striker, while Manchester United have also been linked.
Rose said: “Tottenham to Chelsea is just never going to happen, so after that, you have to look abroad and if I’m Harry, yeah I don’t think Bayern is a bad one.”
The former Spurs left-back added: “If you said Bayern, I wouldn’t have put them as my top three teams. But as I said, Harry going anywhere in England, it’s going to be really, really difficult.
“Definitely I can’t see the Chelsea one because the two clubs don’t do business historically, and I don’t know if Harry’s legacy at Spurs would get a bit tarnished.
“I know the fans definitely know if he was to leave you could never, ever blame him, but try not to go to Chelsea with all respect.
“Tottenham to [Manchester] United, it’s only been [Dimitar] Berbatov from my time at Spurs.”
Harry Kane will not leave Tottenham Hotspur for Chelsea
In our opinion, Harry Kane will not join Chelsea.
No way.
Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy will surely not sell Kane to bitter London rivals Chelsea.
And even if the striker leaves Spurs on a free transfer at the end of next season, he will know better than to move to Chelsea.
After all, Kane is a Tottenham legend who could end up as the top scorer of all time in the Premier Leagiue.
