Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea are interested in signing Harry Kane from Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur, according to Bild journalist Christian Falk.
Chelsea interested in Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane
The well-known and well-respected German journalist has reported on Twitter that Tottenham and England international striker Kane is “very interesting” for Chelsea.
However, according to Falk, Chelsea believe that Tottenham would prefer to sell the £200,000-a-week (SalarySport) star to a club like Bayern Munich to another English team.
German giants Bayern have been strongly linked with the England international striker in recent days.
Bayern head coach Julian Nagelsmann said last week that he would love to sign Tottenham striker Kane, as relayed by journalist Fabrizio Romano on Twitter.
Earlier this month, Kicker claimed that the Bundesliga champions have identified Kane as a long-term replacement for Robert Lewandowski, who has left for Barcelona.
90min reported over the weekend that Tottenham and Kane want to open talks over a new contract.
The striker is out of contract at Tottenham in the summer of 2024.
Unlikely transfer
In our view, Chelsea are unlikely to be able to sign Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur.
Chelsea and Tottenham are bitter London rivals, and Kane is unlikely to damage his relationship with the North London club’s fans by moving to Stamford Bridge.
Moreover, Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy will not want to strengthen a direct rival by selling them one of the best strikers in the world.
