Chelsea fans have urged their new owner Todd Boehly to make Tottenham Hotspur superstar Harry Kane his first marquee signing after his brace against Arsenal.

The 28-year-old became the all-time record goalscorer against the Gunners in the Premier League. He netted a penalty and nodded in a free header from a corner to help Spurs secure a 3-0 win on Thursday, May 12.

Tottenham now find themselves just a point behind Arsenal in the table with two games left to go. Both north London clubs can still mathematically catch up to Chelsea in third.

A turbulent summer saw Kane relentlessly linked with a move to Manchester City last year. The England captain has recovered from a slow start this term to score 24 goals and provide nine assists in his 47 Spurs appearances.

BBC News reports that the Blues are set to be taken over by a consortium led by LA Dodgers owner Boehly. Plans for a revamp of Thomas Tuchel's playing squad are surely imminent from the mega-rich owner.

Blues fans believe that Kane will be a reasonable target this summer if Spurs don't reach the Champions League. They took to Twitter to express their views on the potential summer coup:

It was a hugely damaging defeat for the Gunners, who also lost Rob Holding thanks to a brainless red card in the first-half. They still lead their North London rivals by a point, although their remaining fixtures do look tougher on paper.

Mikel Arteta's side, who have a much worse goal difference than Spurs, travel to Newcastle United next before hosting relegation-threatened Everton on the final day.

Tottenham will next play Burnley at home before they travel to already relegated Norwich City, who are on a five-game losing streak, for their last game.

Following Chelsea's convincing victory over Leeds United, the Blues look almost certain to be in next season's Champions League.

They have an FA Cup final to look forward to this weekend. They will then conclude the season with a pair of games at Stamford Bridge against Leicester City and Watford.
