Chelsea ‘willing to offer Tammy Abraham and Kepa in ambitious swap transfer for Harry Kane’ as Man Utd and City circle

TOTTENHAM could be offered Kepa Arrizabalaga or Tammy Abraham in Chelsea’s bid to sign Harry Kane.

The Blues are in the mix to snap up the striker, 27, after he told Spurs of his desire to leave at the end of the season.

Manchester clubs United and City were revealed by SunSport this week to be preparing an £80million, five-year contract offer for the player.

But a huge transfer fee will also be required, potentially up to £150m, as Spurs seek to hold onto their star forward.

Therefore several reports of part-exchange deals have emerged with United said to be willing to let Anthony Martial or Jesse Lingard sign for Tottenham to reduce the cash payment.

According to ESPN, Chelsea are also considering this route with a number of fringe players eyed for a swap.

Record signing Kepa is one such player having failed to cement his place as the Blues’ goalkeeper – while Spurs have been tipped to let Hugo Lloris go.

Callum Hudson-Odoi and Abraham are reportedly part of the discussion as Stamford Bridge bosses weigh up their summer plans.

Thomas Tuchel is set to be given £150m to turn Chelsea back into a Premier League title winning force.

Erling Haaland had been linked with the attack and central defence eyed for improvement.

But the opportunity to send academy graduate Abraham, 23, to North London in the Kane deal is reportedly tempting.

The striker has not scored a league goal in 2021 and was hauled off at half-time of both his league starts since Tuchel’s arrival.

However, Tottenham are described as reluctant to sell anyone to their London rivals given the standoffish relationship between the clubs.

Roman Abramovich has refused to let Chelsea players sign for their London rivals, with Carlton Cole revealing he once blocked him from making the switch.
