Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan has spoke highly of Chelsea midfielder Kai Havertz.

The German has become Thomas Tuchel's first choice striker in recent weeks, having scored a brace against Burnley last weekend.

Tuchel heaped praise on Havertz ahead of Thursday's clash with Norwich City, and Gundogan is equally as impressed with his compatriot.

"He definitely has a lot of potential. He's still so young but has played so many games, whether it's in Germany or in England," Gundogan told UMM YouTube channel.

"He's won a lot already, he won the Champions League last year against us, so that's obviously a really big thing. He can really get better and better, he's a great guy, very down to earth.

"On the pitch, he's very relaxed, smooth you know, he doesn't really show nerves, which can be a really good thing. He still has a way to go but he's already done a lot to show his potential and his qualities."
