Chelsea already has an option pre-arranged if the London club is unable to take one of the hottest transfers of the summer to the finish line.
Chelsea are on the toes of German national team player Kai Havertz, who plays for Bayer Leverkusen, but at least he’s not ready yet.
Leverkusen is asking Havertz for 100 million euros and is not ready to compromise on a price.
French newspaper Le 10 Sport today reported on Chelsea’s contingency plans should Havertz’s move crash into the rocks.
According to the newspaper, Chelsea will go on to negotiate with Lille about French midfielder Joathan Ikonen.
The icon would thus detach from Lille with a transfer amount of EUR 35 million.
