Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger has spoken out on the Kai Havertz transfer situation as the Bayer Leverkusen attacking midfielder continues to be linked with the Blues.
The Germany international has shown himself to be one of the finest young players in the world in his career so far, and Chelsea fans will surely be excited about another big-name addition to their squad after their strong start to the summer.

Chelsea have already signed Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech, Ben Chilwell and Thiago Silva, and Havertz’s arrival would be another major statement of intent from the club.
