Chelsea forward Kai Havertz has played down suggestions that he could win the Ballon d'Or in the future ahead of Chelsea's weekend Premier League trip to Everton.
Havertz, 22, as well as having 19 goal contributions and counting in all competitions for the Blues this term, has already won the Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup since completing his £70million plus move from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2020. However in recent games, alongside the rest of the Chelsea attack, he has faltered when having opportunities to add to his ever-growing goal contributions list with the Man United draw a prime example of the development he still has in his game if he is to reach the elite level.
In that game itself, the German squandered numerous opportunities including a one-on-one opportunity that came around in the first half when N'Golo Kante's forward pass dissected the Red Devils' backline. It seemed inevitable that the false 9 would score but his tame effort was saved well by David De Gea. Not taking chances and being clinical enough was the order of the night in Old Trafford as the 22-year-old's mini goal drought stretched to its fifth game ahead of the trip to Goodison Park this Sunday.
