The Blues spent 72 million pounds on the 21-year-old midfielder last week and new data from Germany shows how eager he is to close the deal.
Sport Bild explains how Havertz’s interest in joining Chelsea was based on his love for coach Frank Lampard.
The German has reportedly been in contact with england’s former star for months.
And the move peaked at the end of August, when Chelsea’s movement repairman Marina Granovskaia sat down with Bayer Leverkusen bosses in southern France.
While the Premier League team was content to pay an initial amount of 72 million pounds, negotiations focused on what would cause additional bonus payments.
Factors such as name wins and Champions League rankings were divided into a total of 89 million pounds, 10% of which would pass to Havertz.
It is alleged that the player waived this contractual clause to assist Bayer with the sale.
However, Havertz is expected to make money later in his career at Chelsea, as he is owed a heavy portion of the bonuses if the Blues succeed.
The Aachen-born ace is treated fairly with his weekly salary which is expected to be 310,000 euros consistent with the week, with a five-year contract.
Lampard was delighted to run with his new star when he spoke to the media on Thursday.
He said on the club’s website: “He’s a player I’ve known for a long time and as an offensive midfielder I’ve been paying close attention to this player for some time.
“I was aware of his skill and as we ran with the club we know how we should move forward and look in the right areas.
“And for the players who will be there to improve and mature, but who are already at a very high level, it’s probably done us the trick, so I’m very happy to have it. “
In fact, it was Lampard’s demonstration of Chelsea’s 2012 Champions League victory that encouraged Havertz for the first time.
The Bild report describes how the young man “captivated” through the tranquillity of the Blues legend and his offensive skill, as well as through the club’s rise as a new football power.
