Stan Collymore can see Harry Kane leaving Bayern Munich after just one season, suggesting that Chelsea could offer the striker a route back to London.
While Kane had had an exceptional season individually at Bayern, the campaign has not gone according to plan for the club, who have failed to win the Bundesliga title for the first time in 12 years.
Their failure to lift the league title has seen the former Tottenham man being the subject of ridicule on social media, given that he had left his boyhood club last summer in search of silverware.
However, Kane and his Bayern teammates are still going strong in the Champions League and now face a battle against Real Madrid for a place in the final at Wembley in June.
Will Harry Kane return to the Premier League?
Collymore believes the 30-year-old would be keen on returning to England this summer and suggested that he could reunite with Mauricio Pochettino at Stamford Bridge.
The former Liverpool striker told CaughtOffside: “So the Kane jinx continues to strike in Munich as Bayer win the title, which leaves the question, will Bayern look to cash in on Harry’s super individual season, potentially after a good Euro’s, to several clubs who arguably need his services, or does he stay, Duke it out again next season and wrestle the Bundesliga back?
“I think secretly he wants to come home, and if you were Manchester United, potentially with a new manager and under new ownership, the signing of Kane would represent cache and intent.
“Chelsea also could use not only his goals but his experience to help the young pups along. I thought earlier on this season that he should stay and fight Bayer next season to get the title back but I’m particularly warming to Kane to Chelsea.
“They have the cash, it’s his city and they desperately need some calm heads around the place, people you can rely on. They don’t come calmer than Kane and the fact he knows Poch so well may be the focus that the manager and owner need to get the Blues back firing towards that top four.”
Spurs Web Opinion
This column by Collymore is so detached from reality that it is hard to decide where to start while picking it apart. Firstly, let us put aside the fact that he has somehow read Kane’s mind and decided that the striker would be keen to leave Bayern.
It is completely ridiculous to suggest that the 30-year-old will want to join Man Utd or Chelsea as those two sides certainly do not look likely to compete for major honours. Finally, to claim that the Blues have the cash to sign Kane shows Collymore’s total ignorance about the West London club’s current financial predicament.
