Arsenal star Kai Havertz has turned into an unpopular figure to many at Stamford Bridge, and it seems as if the feeling is mutual between himself and Chelsea.
Havertz didn’t live up to the hype after he was brought in during Frank Lampard’s first stint in charge of the club in 2020, although can claim to have scored one of the most famous goals in club history.
The German rounded Ederson in the 2021 Champions League final to score the only goal that brought the second Champions League trophy back to West London.

Kai Havertz rules out future Chelsea return
The Blues remain the only team from the capital to have won the competition, with Arsenal falling short in this year’s final despite another Havertz goal.
The attacker is currently out in North America preparing to get Germany’s World Cup campaign underway, where he will be hoping for a starting place in the side up against the likes of Nick Woltermade.
When taking some time out to sign autographs with local fans, one of them asked the Arsenal man to return to Chelsea.
As per Eduardo Hagn, Havertz laughed before saying: “You wish, you wish.”
Last time he was at Stamford Bridge, Havertz was booed every time he touched the ball, with a move to a key rival not going down too well.
The same fate has met the likes of Mason Mount and Noni Madueke too, who have both been on the end of rough receptions from their former supporters.
Chelsea replaced Havertz with Nicolas Jackson, although after two seasons at the club he was sent out on loan to Bayern Munich.
They were not keen on triggering the automatic clause to sign him, and instead were actually targeting Havertz as a replacement.
This does put Jackson at a crossroads though when it comes to his career, with the potential of being reintegrated at Chelsea not out of the window now Xabi Alonso is at the helm.
