Southampton legend Matt Le Tissier believes that Theo Walcott would give Chelsea a different option up front – if the Arsenal forward were to move to Stamford Bridge.
The England international is a reported target for Jose Mourinho's Premier League leaders, with the Blues said to be considering a summer offer.
While Le Tissier feels that Walcott would not necessarily be a first-team regular for Chelsea, the former Saints star thinks that the Arsenal man would be worth pursuing for the Stamford Bridge outfit.
He told talkSPORT: "He has certainly got enough qualities to play in that [Chelsea] team and make a difference.
"Whether or not in that side he would be guaranteed a place every week might be a different question. But I think any of the top teams in this country would be able to make use of what Theo has got."
Walcott has just over a year remaining on his current contract at the Emirates.
