DBasia.news – Bayer Leverkusen CEO, Reiner Calmund spoke up regarding speculation on the future of Kai Havertz. He said that the playmaker is better to continue his career in Real Madrid.
Havertz is currently a hot property in the transfer market. Understandably, the player had shown a slick performance with Die Werkself in the last three seasons.
So far there are several European giants who are interested in bringing in the player. Several EPL and La Liga clubs are queuing to secure the services of the German national team players.
Calmund said that his players were indeed interested in playing in La Liga next season. “From his side, he does have an interest in playing in Spain,” Calmund said as quoted by Goal International.
Calmund believes that Havertz is better off moving to Real Madrid next season. He believes the player will transform into a better player at the Bernabeu.
“I personally do not recommend that he moves to Barca. He will always be compared to Lionel Messi, the media and fans will also remember Messi’s impressive performance rather than him.”
“I think moving to Real Madrid is the most logical option. I know that Real are interested in bringing in Kai, but they have difficulty getting him next summer.”
Calmund also thinks that Havertz is better off moving to Madrid in the 2021/22 season. He considered that at the time, El Real’s condition was ideal to become Havertz’s next career destination. “
“In my opinion, if he moves to a world-class club at a young age he has to play regularly and I think that can happen next year. Luka Modric who plays in Kai’s position will be 36 years old in September, so that is the right moment for him to move. “
“To my knowledge, Real Madrid is also considering such a scenario. If the move occurs next year, Kai will play another season with Leverkusen.” he stated.
Leverkusen has set a high price for Kai Havertz. The player will reportedly be released at a price of 100 million Euros.
