Chelsea attacker Havertz: I'm sure we're in for good time with Potter

Chelsea attacker Kai Havertz says he's happy to play anywhere for manager Graham Potter.

Havertz is confident winning over the new boss.

"Our new coach has made a very good impression," he said this week. "We have a great squad and I think we are in for a good time.

"My position is not that important to me,' he explained about his versatility in attack. 'Of course, it's a bit harder for me as the number 10 because I've actually only played centre-forward at Chelsea for the past year-and-a-half and those are two completely different roles.

"Whether I play in the number 10, nine or on the right flank, I want to help the team and justify the coach's trust. I can put myself in any position."

Currently with the Germany squad, Havertz also said: "Moving to Chelsea was the best thing I could have done.

"In these two years, I have fulfilled my childhood dream.

"It was very good for me to get out of Germany, to experience something new and to adopt the way of playing in England.

"It's very different from what I got to know and love when I was young and turned professional at Leverkusen. I'm really enjoying it and I feel like I have made a big leap forward in England."
