The Bavarian and The Blues have both been linked with a move for the 21year old but CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has confirmed the German champions will not be signing the player.
According to Goal, he was quoted saying to Bild: “I’ll be very clear: Financially speaking, we won’t be able to transfer Havertz this year. All of European football, Bayern included, are currently facing major financial challenges for as long as it is not possible to play in front of spectators again.
“It’s a decision that Bayer Leverkusen and the player have to make [whether he leaves]. To be honest, I would also like for Havertz to stay in Leverkusen for at least another year, because we want to have competition.” He continued.
Now leaving Chelsea the front-runner in the signature of the attacking midfielder as the blues spending spree continues.
