It goes without saying that this development might disappoint the Bayern fan base.

Bayern Munich has just joined the competition to sign Kai Havertz, a striker for Chelsea FC, according to Florian Plettenberg. A cheaper option to pricey striker options like Randal Kolo Muani and Dusan Vlahovic is the 24-year-old German national team player who is currently on international duty. Arsenal, who are reportedly in contact with the player, are also interested in the player.

Plettenberg asserts that Eintracht Frankfurt’s 100 million euro asking price has significantly cooled Bayern’s interest in Kolo Muani. Right now, a transfer to PSG for the Frenchman appears more likely. Victor Osimhen of Napoli had already been ruled out earlier in the transfer window, and Harry Kane of Tottenham appears to be out of reach. Although Dusan Vlahovic of Juventus is admired by Thomas Tuchel, the managers haven’t even brought him up for discussion (for some reason).

We are now approaching Havertz.
Havertz may cost between €60 and €70 million, according to Plettenberg’s reporting (via @iMiaSanMia), though Arsenal’s interest is more obvious right now. Since Havertz isn’t the kind of true 9 that the team is currently looking for, supporters will be hoping that it stays that way. He was an attacking midfielder for Leverkusen, and his attempts to play as a striker for Chelsea and the German national team have been at best unimpressive.

If Havertz joins Bayern, he would face competition from Thomas Muller and Jamal Musiala for the attacking midfield positions, which would exacerbate the issues up top. Ending up with someone like Havertz would be a huge letdown in a year where finding a top striker is essential.

Hopefully, the club executives will soon shift their focus to more specific goals and this will only be a passing interest.

Chelsea has already signed the “new Lionel Messi.”, as Enzo Fernandez’s ideal partner found.

Chelsea transfer news: The Blues have spoken to their first summer hire as they prepare to sign Moises Caicedo. In order for the two to play together, Mauricio Pochettino will be hoping.

Kendry Paez, Chelsea’s first and only summer transfer that has been officially confirmed, has made a statement since joining the team. After months of negotiations with Ecuadorian side Independiente del Valle, the 16-year-old, who won’t join until his 18th birthday, was signed.

It offers a potential pathway for the player and is the same team that Moises Caicedo, a current transfer target, played for in his youth. Football has replaced Caicedo as Chelsea’s top priority this summer. The two Ecuadorians have long-term aspirations of joining the Blues as teammates. This is understood in London.

It’s not as unlikely as it might seem, despite a five-year age difference. Following Roberto De Zerbi’s admission that he had probably played his last match for the club, two years after making his debut, Chelsea is making a strong effort to sign the Brighton star. Caicedo, who costs more than £70 million, is an example of the unrealized potential of South American leagues.

In recent years, Brighton has successfully exploited this market, and Chelsea is now considering doing the same. Even at such a young age, the addition of Kendry is a strong sign of the caliber and confidence in the players of the future.

The player has maintained his composure even after being named to his first senior international team. He told ESPN, “I don’t feel pressure; I’m focused on Independiente, on the Libertadores, and I’ll keep playing the best I can.

Later this month, when the national team plays Bolivia and Costa Rica, Kendry will have the chance to make his international debut. High expectations are placed on him as a player because he excelled for his country’s junior teams and advanced to play men’s football in Ecuador.

“I need to keep working and concentrate on my studies if I want to get there well. To exchange ideas with players like Enzo [Fernandez] and other unique individuals will be a special experience. I’m concentrating on Independiente Del Valle right now, though it’s wonderful,” he continued. “I’ll keep doing what I’m doing here, there are only two years left, I know it goes by quickly. ”.

After being acquired by Benfica for only £10 million last year, Fernandez was another player to quickly transition from South America to the Premier League. After being acquired by Chelsea for £107 million, he went on to become a world champion and a British record transfer within six months. Even at such a young age, Kendry has a history of success, from playing for River Plate to commanding midfields in the Champions League.

Being one of the most promising players on the Ecuadorian team, he has unavoidably received comparisons to Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona. He might yet surpass late Maradona’s mark for being the youngest player to make his South American debut. He has his eye on it.

He said, “I have to keep working for what is coming; I want to be there, break another record. “It’s crucial for me to beat a player who was the best, world champion, and most elite player. It is amazing that an Ecuadorian broke the top record.
“.
However, he objects to the comparisons to the two great Argentines. I’m Kendry, and I’m going to give Ecuador a name. I refuse to be compared to Messi, so I’m going to keep being me. He is the best and very special. Because I’m still in the process and I’m only 16 years old, they cannot compare me to him.

“I need to learn a lot and gain a lot of experience. In due time, possibly with my winnings, perhaps with the Ecuadorian Kendry Paez. There is only me doing it. ”.

Chelsea appears to have acquired a player who is mature for his age and will benefit from his early participation in the national team. They have similar expectations for the gifted Brazilian midfielder Andrey Santos, who was also loaned back to South America this year, and they will be secretly hoping to see the two of them on the field together, perhaps with Caicedo.
