Chelsea’s Kai Havertz on Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne
Havertz said about De Bruyne on Stadium Astro: “The brain, I would say, De Bruyne maybe. He is a very good player for me. I love to watch him play. He is very good.”
World-class footballer
In our opinion, Kevin De Bruyne is one of the best players in the world, and Kai Havertz’s admiration of the Manchester City star outlines how his peers see him.
The 30-year-old cost City £55 million in the summer of 2015 (BBC Sport), and we have to say that he has repaid every penny.
De Bruyne is a very intelligent footballer who can pull the strings from midfield.
The midfielder has scored 11 goals and given six assists in 21 Premier League starts this season.
The Belgium international has also scored two goals and given three assists in eight Champions League starts for City this campaign.
For City to win the Premier League and the Champions League this season, in our view, De Bruyne will have to be on top of his game in the final weeks of the campaign.
