Ex-striker in awe of Chelsea transfer plan as 'huge' bid lined up for new Werner partner

Frank McAvennie

Celtic and West Ham legend Frank McAvennie joined the Football Insider stable in June 2020 and has not disappointed with his own brand of unique punditry. He loves talking football almost as much as he loved scoring goals, and still has close links in the dressing room at Parkhead.

Harry Kane can thrive at Chelsea if he leaves Tottenham during the summer transfer window. 

That's according to former West Ham striker Frank McAvennie, speaking exclusively to Football Insider about Kane's future.

Kane, 27, is top of the charts for both Premier League goals and assists this season with 21 and 13 respectively.

McAvennie claims Kane can thrive alongside Timo Werner at Chelsea in what has the potential to be a prolific partnership.

"Chelsea have a great manager and are doing very well," McAvennie told Football Insider correspondent Ben Wild.

"If Kane was to go there he'd score an awful lot of goals. Werner is a different kind of centre forward. 

"He isn't always a goalscorer but his movement is excellent. Harry would score a lot of goals if he played with Werner. 

"To be honest he'll score goals where ever he's playing but he could work very well with Werner."

Werner, 25, has struggled during his debut Premier League season, scoring just six goals.

However, he has racked up 11 assists and performed well in recent games against West Ham and Real Madrid.
