“So far we have no offer. We know about the interest of clubs, but there is no official offer.”

Leverkusen value the 21-year-old Havertz at €100m. However, there is hope that a lower fee could be agreed upon, even though Leverkusen director Rudi Voller has insisted that they will not be budging on their stance.
Having already signed Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner, we have shown our intent and ambition ahead of next season. Adding Havertz to the side will turn us into one of the most devastating attacking units in the continent. Hopefully, the club manages to get the deal over the line at the earliest.
