Havertz Could Thrive In The Premier League, Says Hargreaves

Havertz Could Thrive In The Premier League, Says Hargreaves

Former England and Bayern Munich midfielder Owen Hargreaves has likened the talent of Bayer Leverkusen hotshot Kai Havertz to Germany legends Mesut Ozil and Michael Ballack and insists the 20-year-old could succeed in England.

Havertz is valued at around £90million and has been linked to several clubs in the Premier League notably Liverpool.

The Germany international made his Bundesliga bow for Bayer Leverkusen in October 2016, in a 2-1 loss against Werder Bremen.

He has since established himself as one of the best players in the league and has been touted by many as one of the brightest young talents in European football.

Hargreaves has admitted he would love to see Havertz join Bayern Munich and believes he is as good as Jadon Sancho and Erling Haaland.

"He is special," BT Sport pundit Hargreaves told Goal.

"He is the next one. I think all the best German players stay in the Bundesliga for a while and then they go to the Premier League or Barcelona or Real Madrid.”

"Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, Toni Kroos and Mesut Ozil all travelled and did well. These Bundesliga talents are in high demand as they are well schooled and good professionals. He is the next one.”

"All eyes are on Haaland and Sancho but Kai Havertz is the one from a German perspective.”

“He is special and he is like a hybrid of Michael Ballack and Mesut Ozil. That says a lot in terms of his goals and elegance.”

"He is a super player and I think many fans will be watching him from England’s top six and thinking that a guy like him is good enough to go to their teams. He could play at Liverpool, Man United or Man City.

"I think anyone watching him this weekend [against Borussia Monchengladbach] will say sign him up. I would love to see Havertz go to Bayern but I think anyone would want him in their team."
