Bayer Leverkusen up valuation for Liverpool, Real Madrid target Havertz

Bayer Leverkusen have upped their valuation for Kai Havertz.

The Germany international is a favourite of Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp and it's been suggested by both English and German media sources he will be a summer market priority for the European champions.

However, Bayer are moving the goal posts, with BILD reporting an initial €90m asking price now jumping to €130m.

Bayer's board believe they can rake in such a fee knowing Liverpool, Real Madrid and Barcelona are all interested in the 20 year-old.

This season, Havertz, tied to Bayer until 2022, has 9 goals and 8 assists in 33 games.
