Souness admits he can’t see Kane going to Chelsea, but the west London giants would certainly do well to do all they can to bring in an upgrade on the misfiring Timo Werner.
The Germany international simply hasn’t lived up to expectations at Stamford Bridge so far and Chelsea can’t afford to risk relying on him for another season if he continues to struggle like this.
