Signing Kai Havertz from Bayer Leverkusen would be a statement of intent from Chelsea if it happens, Craig Burley has said.
Craig believes that Havertz and Werner coming into the club this window will prove that Chelsea is becoming ambitious again.
According to him, both players fit with the current style of play that Lampard is perfecting at Stamford Bridge, so it won’t be a bad to sign them.
He added that Werner can play 2 positions and Havertz is also flexible as well, which is always good for top clubs.
His words, “You can’t have enough good players,”
“It would be a statement of intent to go out and get one of Europe’s most exciting young talents.
“It does fit with the narrative that Chelsea and Lampard are going down.
“They are looking to sign younger players with sell-on value but who can also produce the goods now.
“If they get Werner, he can play wide or through the middle. Havertz is flexible as well. They may be a little top-heavy, in terms of their forward line.”
“But it would be a statement from [Roman] Abramovich to say, ‘we’ve given you Werner and we also want Havertz, one of the brightest talents in European football’.
“That’s a very exciting sign for Chelsea fans, but I doubt they will be in that race alone because Havertz is probably on everybody’s radar.”
“Chelsea are going mostly for future talents. Werner and Havertz coming in on top of the players they already have is definitely a plus.
“You cannot have enough talented players, it’s always good to have a talent like that in your squad.”
