According to Football London, Kai Havertz has finally opened up on his preference to join a club that can immediately compete for trophies.
Havertz, who has scored five goals in four games since the Bundesliga restarted last month, is valued at around £90million, but Chelsea are reportedly trying to negotiate a deal nearer the £70million mark.
And in an interview with Marca, Havertz dropped a hint on his future by highlighting his desire to win trophies above all else.
“The team is always the priority, success is collective,” he said.
“Then, the individual [trophies] come when you play well. I want to win the biggest trophies during in my career: Champions League, World Cup or Euros. I don’t think much about the individual [trophies].”
“They (Bayern) are probably the biggest club in Germany and there are many players that were very successful at a young age that went there. “Therefore, I get linked with Bayern, but we’ll see what happens. There are players that want to stay close to their family and others say, ‘I want to live in another country’.
“There’s something clear: if you want to be a star in Germany, you can’t go wrong with Bayern.
“I think I’ve picked up enough international experience at Leverkusen. I know the rhythm of these international matches and I’m confident that I can go abroad at any moment and play at clubs outside of Germany like (Chelsea and other clubs abroad). “For the moment, I want to have a good season. Afterwards, we’ll see.”
