The Blues are still secured in talked with Bayer Leverkusen over the transfer of Kai Havertz, regardless of the youngster ‘pushing’ for a move to Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea see the 21-year-old as their main transfer target and Kai Havertz has his heart set on a move to Stamford Bridge this summer.
He needs to play Champions League football next season and feels prepared to make the move to the Premier League.
Kai Havertz already agreed personal terms and Chelsea, with the player prepared to sign a deal until June 2025.
In any case, the two clubs are allegedly about £18m separated in their valuations of the player, as indicated by Fabrizio Romano.
Kai Havertz and his agents are pushing for the move to happen however Bayer won’t move on their asking price. What’s more, they won’t permit the transfer to delay until the transfer window shut in October.
They are eager to allow him to leave but they need the deal done quickly and on their terms. Chelsea and Bayer Leverkusen are still putting together a deal with add-ons as a major part of the deal.
Bayer Leverkusen are not moving on their asking price and searching for a quick resolution, the following few days of the negotiations could be significant to Kai Havertz’s expectations of making a move.
