Poch sees signs of Kane in Broja and urges striker to stay

MAURICIO POCHETTINO says Armando Broja's situation at Chelsea is similar to that of a young Harry Kane's at Tottenham and urged him to ignore talk of a possible exit.

The 22-year-old striker (right, in training) will likely start against Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup tonight, but it has emerged that the Blues would sell him for the right price.

West Ham, Fulham, Villa and Wolves all admire the Albania international, who could cost as much as £50million, as Chelsea weigh up signing a striker before the transfer window closes on Thursday. Napoli's Victor Osimhen and Brentford's Ivan Toney are marquee options for the summer, with shortterm options such as Villa's Jhon Duran and Newcastle's Callum Wilson being considered in January.

Pochettino has urged Broja, who is his only available striker, to cope with the noise surrounding Chelsea.
