Kai Havertz says he'll play where needed for Chelsea.
Having played on the wing, as a no10 and up front this season, Havertz denies that he has an identity crisis on the pitch, insisting that all he tries to do is contribute goals.
“After three years [at Chelsea], everyone should know by now what I can do, that I'm flexible up front and I can play a lot of different positions," Havertz said after scoring in their Champions League win at RB Salzburg.
“Of course, sometimes it's good to play in different positions and sometimes it's bad, but in general I'm an offensive player. I like to be in the box. I like to score goals. I like to arrive in the box often and I don't care if I'm there as a no9 or a no10. If I'm in the box, I'm there to score goals and that's it."
The Blues attacker had only scored two goals in 14 games ahead of Tuesday's match. Havertz will hope that new manager Graham Potter can kickstart a better run of form but is unsure whether Chelsea can emulate their 2021 success in winning the Champions League.
“That's a very difficult question because I've only worked with him for a few weeks, but he is a very, very good coach and time will tell how far we can go in the Champions League," he added.
“It's a special competition for me personally and for us as a club as well," he said. "For me, it's the best competition in the world and everyone is excited to play in these matches. It was nice to score an important goal (against Salzburg) and I hope to continue in this manner."
