Havertz speaks on why teammates call him donkey

Chelsea star and Germany international Kai Havertz has revealed why his teammates call him a donkey.

Havertz in his statement said it started after his teammates found out how he holds a special relationship with the animal.

The Germany International made this known during an interview with the Guardian during the international break.

“Some of my teammates call me ‘Donkey’. It’s not because of my football; from day one, I felt a special relationship with donkeys,” he said.

The Germany star further explained that he is fond of the temperament of donkeys, which is similar to how he lives his daily life:

According to him, donkeys are calm animals and do not bother themselves so much, which is why he personifies himself in them.

Meanwhile, Chelsea will return to action this weekend when they face Aston Villa in the Premier League.

The Blues will hope to win all three points in their first game after the international break.
