Chelsea will have to wait to sign young talented playmaker after Bayer Leverkusen beat Rangers

Bayer Leverkusen’s Kai Havertz keeps on being a transfer target for Chelsea however the German star is probably going to stay at his club a little longer after their Europa League win over Rangers.

Chelsea’s quest for Kai Havertz is probably going to continue after Bayer Leverkusen saw off Rangers in the Europa League.

Bayer Leverkusen had a 3-1 aggregate lead heading for the BayArena and won 1-0 .

It implies they are currently into the last eight of the tournament and the club’s sporting director Rudi Voller had recently said it was “unchangeable” that 21-year-old would see out the season.

The Europa League final is on 21st of August in Cologne meaning Chelsea may need to wait for another two weeks before completing Kai Havertz deal.

Regardless of whether Chelsea finished the signing of 21-year-old on the day after the final, if Bayer Leverkusen get there, it will just give the forward three weeks until the start of the Premier League season.

Kai Haverts has been in shining form this season scoring multiple times.

It implied many European clubs wants the services of the talented playmaker and he told the Bayer Leverkusen hierarchy that he needed them to authorize his exit.

Term AGREED: Chelsea to sign Lille forward as Bayer Leverkusen playmaker replacement

Chelsea have burnt through no time in including new talents this summer as they get the ball really rolling after their transfer ban a year back.

Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has at long last had the option to reinforce his alternatives and has brought Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech to Stamford Bridge.

Kai Havertz’s catch would include more capability, however it was at the back where the Blue’s issue lied last term.

Chelsea manager is anticipated to offload a portion of his centre-backs as he looks for upgrades.

Kepa Arrizabalaga, the club’s record signing who just move to Stamford Bridge two years prior, could also be sold having become undesirable.

Dean Henderson and Nick Pope has both been connected as Kepa Arrizabalaga’s replacement.
