Many have doubted Kai Havertz over the years but Mauricio Pochettino could build Chelsea's dream starting-lineup by blocking his move to Real Madrid. The 24-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to the Santiago Bernabeu recently as Carlo Ancelotti looks to bolster his frontline.
According to Spanish outlet AS, Los Blancos will target Havertz if they cannot snatch Harry Kane from Tottenham. However, the report states that Real Madrid are set to be disappointmented, claiming that Pochettino sees the Germany international as an 'essential' member of his squad.
It's said that Chelsea are open to offers for Havertz, but the former Spurs boss will likely block his departure. While the former Bayer Leverkusen star has been subject to his fair share of criticism, he could thrive under Pochettino in a role.
