The latest hot player on everyone's radar is Bayer Leverkusen's 20 year-old sensation Kai Havertz. I have watched him a few times and I think this guy is brilliant; on another level almost. He plays with a maturity well beyond his years; he is strong; elegant and composed. And he can score & create goals. He is currently playing in a sightly-unorthodox striker in a 'False Nine' role; whereby he will drop deep into midfield to pick up the ball and orchestrate things. Yet; his fitness and mobility allows him to charge up the field and score at the sharp end as well; leading to a great advantage for his team Bayer Leverkusen.
Perhaps not surprisingly; Bayer assistant manager Marcel Daum has compared him to Zinedine Zidane; one of the best players of all-time. I think if you look at his strength on the ball; his elegance and all-round awareness; I see where's he coming from. Manchester United are currently on the lookout for him; and I am not surprised; as he is a player that can transform a team's fortunes. But for sure he will not come cheap.
