And Bayer Leverkusen hotshot Havertz, 21, took his top-flight goal tally to 36 - the youngest player to reach that number - after slotting home in a 3-1 win over Cologne in the Rhine derby.

The scintillating performances from both Chelsea targets pricked up ears in West London - with Stamford Bridge supporters taking to Twitter to show their delight.

Werner's switch to Chelsea is waiting to be finalised with Blues medical staff unable to fly to Germany to carry out tests because of the Government's 14-day quarantine period being enforced upon their return.

Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno welcomed the news of his international team-mate's arrival to London but warned Gunners fans his "killer instinct" could make the West London side title contenders.

The German hotshot could be joined at Stamford Bridge by compatriot Havertz, but negotiations for the Bayer Leverkusen midfielder have reportedly stalled over the £90million asking price.

It's no surprise that Manchester United and Barcelona are also keeping close tabs on the playmaker's situation.

Club CEO Fernando Carro told : "With Kai Havertz, I see that many clubs are interested in him.
