Manchester United gave Kai Havertz a significant presentation of his plans on how he would be compatible with Old Trafford before his imaginable move to Chelsea, he has claimed..
The 21-year-old becomes Chelsea’s all-time top signing after Kepa Arrizabalaga and his sixth new signing of the summer.
Havertz had attracted much attention from clubs across Europe with his Bundesliga performances with Bayer Leverkusen in seasons.
He lit up the Bundesliga when he resumed in May, scoring six goals in eight appearances and also scoring two in three Europa League appearances.
And Frank Lampard hopes that the SUV, who can play as an winger, centre forward or number 10, can be so influential for Chelsea in their quest to catch up with the premier league’s dominant teams: Array Liverpool and Manchester City.
However, things may have been different because United were equally willing to make German a component of their first team.
According to The Athletic, United made a performance of its own last year that it considered “remarkable”.
They add, however, that the interest of the 13-time Premier League champions has gone further, in part because they signed Bruno Fernandes from Sporting Lisbon in January, which has since been a revelation to the Red Devils.
But also partly because since January, United have made it clear that they would rather beat Borussia Dortmund’s Jadon Sancho as they seek to make England’s foreign national their far right of first choice for the foreseeable future.
United remains in negotiations on Sancho but hesitates to succeed in its value of 108 million pounds, with very little progress in recent weeks.
Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Liverpool were among the clubs that touched Havertz representatives for more than 18 months.
However, Chelsea has been in normal contact with the player’s other people since April 2019 and insisted that the player play a role for them in the coming years.
Real Madrid have long been seen as Havertz’s preferred pick, but the whites were unwilling to make a serious offer this summer, Chelsea had to convince him that they were their most productive bet.
Frank Lampard also played a central role in helping convince Hakim Ziyech, Ben Chilwell and Timo Werner to go to Stamford Bridge, and Chelsea manager also hired Thiago Silva and Malang Sarr.
Athletic said Lampard had explained how he was looking for Havertz to be the focus of his new look and that his enthusiasm for attacking football and young people had earned the striker.
Havertz reportedly convinced after talks that connecting with Lampard would be a very exciting adventure for him in the upcoming campaigns.
And the striker said it in his first interview as a Chelsea player, stating on the club’s official website: “Of course he [Lampard] had a big effect on my resolve because he enjoyed it as a player and watched it very often..
“I think now I can be informed by him, he’s also a coach.I think he’s a very humble user and a wonderful guy and I can’t wait to play with him and be informed of him.”
“He was very offensive like me and loves scoring goals, and I also like to score goals, so I think it will help me a lot in my position.Maybe also in the things I can and don’t see the time to paint with him.”
“For me, Chelsea is still a wonderful club and all the wonderful players who played here.Now Chelsea have wonderful players and I’m very excited to play here and for me it’s a big step.”
“I’m doing my best productivity in the coming weeks, months and years, and I’m doing the most productive thing for the team.
“I think it’s very exciting because Chelsea have very young players and I know some players like Timo [Werner] and Toni [Rudiger].
“I played with them in the national team and they’re friends of mine and I think that’s very smart for me.
In addition, Chelsea have very young players and English players and that’s very smart and it’s a great project.I hope we can have a lot of successes.
“I need to achieve as much as possible, I strive to do the most productive and, of course, it’s a big step forward.
“For me, it’s a new country, a new culture and it’s complicated in the first two or three weeks, but then I think I just need to play football and laugh with the kids.
“Of course I need to have a great fortune and we must win titles here. Chelsea are a great club and they need to win titles and I try to do my best so that we can achieve those things.”
