Kai Havertz revealed playing under manager Frank Lampard at Chelsea is a dream come true
He said: “I watched many games of him as a kid.
“He was also like the way I play as a midfielder — to go in the box, score goals and make assists.
“I loved him as a player. I was dreaming as a kid to play in the Premier League and for Chelsea as well.
“I’ve always dreamed of playing in a league like that and that dream came true very early.”
And the former Bayer Leverkusen ace insists he feels no pressure to live up to his hefty transfer fee.
He added: ”Of course it’s a big price tag but I think in football today it is normal to pay these prices.
“So for me I will not put a lot of pressure on myself because I think I’m not doing the worst things in the past – that’s why the price tag was high.”
