Kai Havertz ends debate over his best position with Chelsea star bemused by three-year question

It is a question Kai Havertz has been asked frequently over the past three seasons – and one the Chelsea star believes he has answered again and again. But let’s try one more time: What is the German’s best position?

“Everyone should know by now what I can do,” Havertz says with a smile and also a hint of exasperation. “I’m flexible up front and I can play a lot of different positions.

“Of course, sometimes it's good to play in different positions and sometimes it's bad. But in general, I'm an offensive player. I like to be in the box, I like to score goals, I like to arrive in the box often and I don't care if I'm there as a No.9 or a No.10. If I'm in the box, I'm there to score goals and that's it.”
