Former Chelsea star Pat Nevin has backed Kai Havertz to become one of the world's best footballers "over the next decade". The 22-year-old German has been in superb form for the Blues this season as he currently leads the goal scoring chart at the club.
Havertz has 13 goals to his name this season in all competitions, with Mason Mount and Romelu Lukaku both one behind their team-mate on 12 each. Chelsea bought the Germany international for a then-club record fee of £72million from Bayer Leverkusen, in a move that really excited Blues supporters.
The young German was seen as one of European football's brightest young talents, but it took a little while for him to settle into life in England. That, of course, wasn't helped by the coronavirus pandemic and the impact it had on all footballers.
