Chelsea boss Mourinho: I'd never heard of Harry Kane...

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho admits he'd never heard of Harry Kane until his success with Tottenham.

Kane, 22, burst onto the Premier League scene last season after bagging 21 goals in all competitions for the north London outfit.

He said: “I only noticed him when he started playing in the first-team.

“And obviously it's not difficult to feel he's a good striker."

When quizzed on whether he'd like to create a legacy that included young England stars like Mauricio Pochettino's side, Mourinho added: "It depends on the conditions to do it. Sometimes you have it, sometimes you don't."
