Tottenham news: Kane urged to make Chelsea switch as Stellini provides injury update

Here is your Tottenham morning digest on Saturday, April 15.

Gallas backs Chelsea to make Kane move

William Gallas has encouraged Todd Boehly to sign Harry Kane in the summer, claiming that the Tottenham star is the 'perfect' option for Chelsea. The 29-year-old faces an increasingly uncertain future at Spurs after he recently entered the final 14 months of his contract.

Kane is yet to pen a new deal with the north London outfit and numerous top European clubs are said to be keeping tabs on his situation. Prior to Fabio Paratici taking an immediate leave of absence, football.london understood that he had been in contact with the England international's entourage to discuss fresh terms.

However, as it stands, formal discussions have not yet begun. Contrary to popular belief, it's believed that the striker is open to discussing an extension but, amid plenty of uncertainty regarding the club's future, he's been urged to join Chelsea.

Stellini provides injury update

Tottenham Hotspur interim manager Cristian Stellini has delivered an update on his side's current injury status ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash against Bournemouth

Stellini spoke about the prospect of Brazilian international Richarlison returning from injury, with the former Watford man coming back to training earlier this month. Speaking ahead of tomorrow's game against the Cherries, the Italian said: "We have only Richy (Richarlison) with one week training with us.

"Only Richy completely back and we recover him, the other players they start to work but work alone so they are not available." He added: “We have to take care with him, to give him training, and the right timing to play. To not take risks."

Top four aim

Tottenham Hotspur interim manager Christian Stellini says his side have 'eight finals' to make it into the top four and is looking to play more 'attacking football' to achieve it. Spurs sit three points adrift of the Champions League places having played a game more than the two sides directly above them, with Stellini set to take charge of his third match this afternoon against Bournemouth.

He said: "We could do. We have to play eight final games like eight finals. We started with Brighton and now we have eight games. We have to play attacking football. We are trying to push more to create more chances, to try to shoot more on target, to create something that can create a good atmosphere in the stadium and to get the crowd behind us."
