Bundesliga playmaker very keen on Chelsea move however next two games are important

Guaranteeing a Champions League spot will help convince Kai Havertz as Chelsea face two huge Premier League games having beaten Manchester United in Sunday’s FA Cup semi-final.

Kai Havertz is apparently “intrigued” in a move to Chelsea, but Frank Lampard’s side must qualify for Champions League football to sign the playmaker.

Chelsea will set their FA Cup desire aside for later after beating Manchester United 3-1 in Sunday’s semi-final.

Chelsea will be playing against Arsenal on August 1, the Blues face two huge Premier League games against Liverpool and Wolves as they offer to guarantee a top four spot.

Chelsea’s remaining two games will be sufficient to qualify for Champions League next season, as Leicester’s 3-0 defeat to Tottenham will make the Blues job easier.

However, there will be no space for smugness against either the Premier League champions on Wednesday or a Wolves team focusing on qualifying for European football  themselves next Sunday.

Kai Havertz has scored 17 goals and nine assists in all competitions for Leverkusen this season.

Bayer Leverkusen missed a spot in next season’s Champions League as they completed fifth in the Bundesliga, two points outside the top four.
