Frank Lampard and Petr Cech went to Germany to help convince Kai Havertz to join Chelsea

Once again, the dynamic duo of Frank Lampard and Petr Cech look likely to be close to sealing Chelsea’s next massive summer signing.

The two Chelsea legends visited Timo Werner and his representatives in order to convince him to join Chelsea, and as we know, this worked a treat.

It appears the pair have done the same once again with their pursuit of Kai Havertz from Bayer Leverkusen.

As per a number of reports today, including Sky Sport, Chelsea are close to confirming a deal to sign the 21-year old, who has already agreed personal terms at the cub.


Personal terms have already been agreed.
Kai #Haverts just wants to join #Chelsea. No other team.
In a few days there will be the official bid from Chelsea to find the agreement with Bayern Leverkusen around €80M.

And this was down to Cech and Lampard visiting Havertz’s family in Germany, in order to help convince the star to make the move to Chelsea.

This is according to the reliable HLN Journalist Kristof Terreur, who has been speaking on “Boring Boring” CFC Podcast.


“Lampard & Čech went to 🇩🇪 to meet Havertz & his family. They don’t speak 🇬🇧 but Čech talks 🇩🇪 – CFC used it & it helped them making a great impression. Havertz was like ‘wow, Čech – he’s an idol of mine’…”
