Mauricio Pochettino happy with Harry Kane, Chelsea link

Spurs coach Mauricio Pochettino is happy to see Harry Kane court interest from the likes of Chelsea as a reminder that he is doing something right.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that he welcomes speculation linking in-form striker Harry Kane with a move to Premier League champions Chelsea.

Kane has reportedly courted interest from the Blues after what is shaping up to be another free-scoring season for the 22-year-old, who struck 31 times in all competitions last term.

"I am happy that a big club wants our player - this is because they show they are a top player with top performances," Pochettino told reporters. "It is good when they are linked.

"But Harry, like Hugo, wants to stay here. He is one of the best players and he is very happy.

"He wants to grow up with us and try the next few years to try for the top four and win titles with Tottenham. This is his challenge."

Kane, who will come up against his reported suitors when Chelsea visit White Hart Lane on Sunday, has netted 10 times in all competitions this season.
