Harry Kane is "suited perfectly to Chelsea", according to former Blues winger Shaun Wright-Phillips. Chelsea are one of three Premier League clubs who have contacted Kane's representatives with regard to the potential of a summer transfer. The rivalry between the two London clubs could impact on both Tottenham and Kane's decision over a move to Stamford Bridge.

"For me I think he's suited perfectly to Chelsea," Wright-Phillips said on the Kelly & Wrighty Show.
"I think the way he plays, [Spurs fans] might not like me for saying it, but he plays exactly, I wouldn't say like a [Didier] Drogba, but he's evolved his game so much that he links back into play, he compacts the midfield, gets the ball deep, creates space for your Mounts to run in-behind, your Pulisics and your Werners.
"That's what they're looking for, for their centre-backs to step out with him so they can run in behind.
"It would work perfectly for me if he went there but like you said it's Spurs to Chelsea."

Wright-Phillips' dad Ian Wright can also see Kane thriving at Chelsea.
Wright said: "When you look at Chelsea and the way they're playing under Tuchel and how solid they are at the back and how they can get the ball up front, you could see him scoring goals at Chelsea at an alarming rate."
However, former Spurs striker Darren Bent believes the rivalry between the London clubs would mean Chelsea would have to pay over the odds for Kane.
“One of the clubs who have got that kind of money is Chelsea and they will throw everything at it," Bent said on talkSPORT.
