Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has revealed his dream striker signing would be Tottenham’s Harry Kane.<\/p>\n

The Italian, who has brought in Alvaro Morata for \u00a358m, was not suggesting the Blues are looking to buy the England striker, but spoke of his admiration for the 23-year-old.<\/p>\n

Kane has finished as the Premier League’s top goalscorer for the past two seasons, and when answering a question about Tottenham’s title ambitions, Conte said: “Tottenham is a really good squad if they are able to keep all the players.<\/p>\n

“For me, Kane, now, is one of the best strikers in the world.<\/p>\n

“If I had to buy one striker I would go to Kane. He is a complete striker. He is strong physically, with the ball, without the ball, he fights and he’s strong in the air and acrobatic on the right and the left.<\/p>\n

“He’s a complete player. He’s one of the top strikers in the world. If you go to buy Kane now it would be at least \u00a3100m.<\/p>\n

Conte: Too early to assess Morata<\/strong><\/p>\n

Antonio Conte says it is still “too early” to assess the impact Alvaro Morata will have after he made his Chelsea debut on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

“At least. For me, if I see this price for a striker I know for sure he’s a big striker.”<\/p>\n

Conte also revealed that Chelsea missed out on right-back Kyle Walker, who moved to Manchester City earlier this summer for an initial fee of \u00a345m which could rise to \u00a350m.<\/p>\n

The Chelsea boss believes the England forward would cost at least \u00a3100m<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

“We tried to buy Walker,” he said. “Honestly, I think now every single player is expensive. For you to even enquire about one player, he is expensive.<\/p>\n

“You go to buy a right-back, a left-back or a central defender and he is expensive. It is very difficult in the transfer market for the teams that need to improve their squads.”<\/p>\n
