Chelsea Star Defender Thinks This Striker Is One Of The Best In The Premier League

Gary Cahill revealed that Tottenham striker Harry Kane is the best goal-scorer that he has faced this season

Chelsea defender Gary Cahill has heaped lots of praise on Tottenham Hotspur star striker Harry Kane despite the England forward being a direct rival of the blues in the title race.

Cahill has been a vital part of Chelsea’s back three this current campaign after forming an impressive partnership with the duo of Cesar Azpilicueta and David Luiz.

The Chelsea defender is national team-mates with Kane, although both of them were not able to help their country make a humiliating exit in the European championship last summer.

23-year-old Kane has scored 19 times and has provided four assists in 26 appearances in the Premier League this season.

Kane has went ahead to outscored Chelsea’s talented goal-scorer Diego Costa after Costa netted his 17th strike of the season in Chelsea's 2-1 win against West Ham at London Stadium.

And Cahill speaking to talkSPORT about the strength of goal-scorers in the Premier League, singled out Kane for special praise.

Cahill portrayed Kane as a premier league striker who defenders should be wary of, emphasising that Kane is an incredible finisher.

As things stands now, Chelsea are 10 points clear of second-placed Tottenham Hotspur at the top of the table and are firm favourites to win the title this season.
