Havertz isn’t a great player at Stamford Bridge. Some fans may lose patience with him, as he fails in his potential to perform at the high level he displayed at Bayer Leverkusen. This led to Chelsea paying a huge sum for him in the Summer 2020.
Simon Phillips via Substack is now rumored to be linking the Germany international with a surprise move from Stamford Bridge. Romano however says that there are no discussions over the player’s current situation. Romano,
Romano says that Havertz didn’t leave Chelsea in the summer. This means that the 23-year old could get a little more time in west London. Romano wrote in his CaughtOffside column that he believed Havertz needed more time at Chelsea and suggested that he could play in a different position to help him. Romano stated that he was seeing many rumours, but nothing concrete has been made for Havertz.
“Also no negotiations for Havertz were held in the summer. It will be determined in 2023. This will also depend on who the new directors are.
“I believe he deserves more patience, and maybe to play in a different position.”
Although Havertz was primarily a false nine for Chelsea’s team, some of his best performances for Leverkusen were as a number ten. Graham Potter may want to think about how he could change Havertz’s role to get the best from him.
There is a talented player there, so Chelsea would be wise to find a way to fire him before making rash decisions to let him go.
Havertz has mainly played as a false nine for Chelsea, but some of his best form for Leverkusen came as more of a number ten, so it may be worth Graham Potter thinking about how he can change Havertz’s role in order to finally get the best out of him.
There’s a talented player in there somewhere, so Chelsea would do well to figure out how to get him firing before any rash decision to let him go.
