Reports have been linking Real Madrid with a move for Chelsea star Kai Havertz.

Real Madrid have been linked with Havertz in the past, but pulled out of the deal at the last minute.

Havertz’s agent eventually offered the German to Chelsea, and the Blues signed him up.

Chelsea signed Havertz from Bayer Leverkusen in 2020 for €80m. Havertz was expected to be a star signing, but the German hasn’t really hit expected heights at Stamford Bridge.

According to the reliable transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano, Real Madrid’s interest in Kai Havertz is concrete.

“Havertz is one of the players in the list and really appreciated by Ancelotti,” Romano says.

Chelsea are willing to sell Havertz this summer, after three years. But the Blues will only accept a solid offer.
