The 26-year-old has enjoyed another strong season with Bayern Munich with his ability to be effective at both ends of the pitch.
But Goretzka’s contract situation is yet to be resolved with the Bundesliga giants and his current deal expires in 2022.

And Goretzka’s close relationship with Havertz in the German national team could well be the answer for Chelsea in unlocking the 21-year-old’s full potential.
