Chelsea boss Sarri: Kane? I really like Eriksen

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri has confessed an admiration for Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen.

Eriksen is a top target for PSG. But the Blues boss admitted is an admirer of the Dane's talents.

Ex-Chelsea boss Antonio Conte had previously said Harry Kane would be the Spurs player he'd most like to sign, but Sarri said: “Kane is the best ­English striker at the ­moment, but I like very much Eriksen.

“He is a very smart player, a very technical player.

"He's able to play in midfield and, at the same moment, score eight or nine goals in a season."
