Chelsea manager Frank Lampard says he is excited about the arrival of Kai Havertz.
The 21-year-old was bought from Bayer Leverkusen last week for a club record fee of an initial £72million.
And speaking for the first time after training with Havertz, Lampard has been blown away by the humility shown by his new signing.
"Kai is a really exciting signing for myself and for the club first and foremost," Lampard told the club's website.
"He is a player I have been aware of for a long time and as a fellow attacking midfield player, I have paid particular attention to those type of players for some time.
"I was aware of his talent and in conjunction with the club, we know how we want to go forward and look to improve in the right areas, and for players who are going to be here hopefully to improve and mature, but are already at a very high level, he absolutely fitted the bill for us, so I am delighted to have him."
He added: "On his personality, I have been absolutely overwhelmed with how humble and down to earth he is, and how well he wants to do here, and how he is very excited with the challenge. He wants to come here and be a top player for Chelsea, and really prove his talents on this stage.
"That to me has been one of the most exciting things, not just to be excited about him arriving as a top talent, but to see his mentality as he has come in. That gives a really good feeling about how his career is going to be at Chelsea."
