What makes you so sure about that? If anything, Barkley is the one that needs to be sold first!

The story also mentioned "Havertz previously imagined representing Real Madrid". Prepare for another Hazard saga down the road.  

Tbf this is a generic thing and I would take it with a pinch of salt.

Being realistic, which football wouldnt like to play for Real Madrid at some point? The club is seen alongside Barcelona, Bayern, Juventus, AC Milan and even Man United as one of the original European super clubs so to speak. 

Plus given he is a young German, who will have grown up watching Ozil, Khedira and Kroos among others who have been part of a successful German NT, it is clear to see why a young German footballer of his generation would be able to see themselves representing Madrid. Or aspire to at least. Same with Sane and his move to Bayern who will have seen so many young Germans his age make the move as well as guys he played with/grew up seeing at Schalke such as Neuer and then Goretzka. Bayern, Madrid, Barca, United these clubs will always have that lure to the big players or big talents because of their standing, stature and history. 

If he were to come here and repeatedly state it though throughout, like Courtois or Hazard did at times, it would be a different story. 

Might not necessarily happen thought, I still remember Victor Moses saying he wanted to play for Barcelona.... look how that turned out 😂

I do not see Ruben getting any significant match time, regardless if he gets to his best or not. Kova, Frank Lampards son Mount, Havertz, Kante, Billy and Ruben. Kante plays every match, Kova is our best player and we buy someone that costs 90 mio Euros, so he will also play. Mount will play as no. 1 BU and Ruben is the second BU. I expect him to leave in January, so Ruben has a chance to get to the Euros. He has realistic chances getting to the Euros because he played in the last World cup couple of matches and Southgate knows him well because he was his U21 coach.

With the rise of Maddison, Grealish, Foden and Mount I cant see place for him in NT.

I am sure he has a decent chance. There is no one with the physicality like Ruben in their midfield and Southgate knows that.
RLC made Pogba look like a little child.
Prime Yaya could not handle a 17 year old Ruben when he played him in a friendly.

Oh, wow! Now that's an update I like to wake up to! If it's true that he has spoken to Frank, it's almost in the 👜

Ornstein says in his tweet that there may be "a short wait in case of other options" or something like that, so I'm guessing he's giving Real Madrid and maybe City one last chance?

Either way, it seems now like it's just a matter of how we pay (structure of add-ons) now.

[killer1257 3,282]

Hope you are right and Ruben is still a factor. Would be a big mistake selling Ruben because he is our only physical gifted midfielder

"Frank's son" - seriously? Its sad to see the amount of hate our own youth players get from our own fans. Its baffling.

Anyways, Kante, Kova, gilmour, Rlc, mount, Kai. 6 players for 3 positions. If this season is anything to go by, injuries will be galore, oppurtunities will be there. Lamps will be aware that he needs to rotate more too.

Literally no way RLC leaves us. 

To add to all of that, since the next season will be "shorter" in time period, fixtures will be even more congested, injuries can be more rampant and rotation will be the need of the hour.

Didn't he just sign a new five-year deal last year? Doubt anyone can afford him anyway and at worst, we'll loan him out.

Ruben has been nothing but potential. He has amazing attributes which every coach can see so he attracts interest, but Ruben has never consistently lived up to his promise. As a result the sands of time are now running against him. His play in the World Cup can only have served to open Southgate's eyes to the reality that, although Rubes looks like he should be a difference maker, he simply does not perform well enough, often enough. His WC displays were typically flat.

I expect Ruben to be a part of next season's Chelsea squad but, unless he finds the psychological key to unlock his potential, it may prove to be the last one during which anyone continues to believe he has a bright future. After that, it's life as a bit part player here (maybe) or try his luck elsewhere.

Yep, five year deal with wages of £120K/wk + bonuses. That's a clear statement of trust by the club and Lampard, no way he is let go. RLC might not be a star player or a guaranteed starter but he'll be a part of the squad and play a role. It would be stupid to count on him too much given his injury record, so next season he'll continue to be eased back into the squad. He'll get plenty of opportunities, even if it is mostly as a sub.

As for Havertz:

[Special Juan 28,141]

Personal terms have already been agreed. Kai #Haverts just wants to join #Chelsea. No other team. In a few days there will be the official bid from Chelsea to find the agreement with Bayern Leverkusen around €80M. Talks ongoing very fast. #CFC

I am busting with excitement about this, more than any other transfer for years.

[NikkiCFC 8,324]

Ziyech, Werner, Havertz...50% job done.

Now waiting for Oblak, Rice and Alaba 

On a serious note, I think Pulisic and Havertz have potential to fight for Ballon d Or in the future and Timo for Golden Boot.

Havertz, Werner, Pulisic, Ziyech looks unreal.

My question is with them in the squad what we need from other two midfielders? There was a lot of talk that Frank wants to play with two number 8 but I think with these 4 players upfront we would be better with double pivot to protect defense.

Jorginho and Kovacic are great pair. And can Mount play this position?

It's 

Pulisic Werner Ziyech

Havertz Mount/Kovacic

          Kante/Rice

Replica of last season City...a sitting DM behind two 8s...

That's why we're trying to get another Defensive midfielder to stand in for Kante (due to his injury issues) so that they'll protect all these attacking players we're getting
