Lamps speaks out about summer transfers amid Chelsea links with Havertz

Frank Lampard insists any further attacking signings the club make this summer could hinge on the outcome of Chelsea’s final few games, with reports the club are in talks for Kai Havertz.

The season has not yet finished and there is a few more games, but that has not stopped all the speculation in the media suggesting that a new defender and midfielder could arrive at the club in the summer.

Recent reports in the media have claimed that we have already started talks with the little German about a £70 million move to Stamford Bridge.

However, Lampard was in no mood to discuss his interest in Havertz ahead of Wednesday’s trip to Liverpool but did not rule out the prospect of making further additions to his squad.

Asked specifically about Havertz, he said on Sky Sports: ‘I’m not talking about Kai Havertz he’s a player of another team I am looking at a game tomorrow that is so huge for this team. The last thing I want to do is talk about a player from another team.’

On the prospect of further bolstering an already fearsome looking forward line, he added: ‘We will cross that in the summer. The idea of the two players we’ve brought in, of course they are attacking talents and you bring in players like that to improve.

‘We know there might be players moving on naturally, players ending contracts and we know it’s something that I feel we’ve spoken about in certain games where we’ve had a lot of possession of the ball and chances created to a high level and we maybe haven’t quite done that.

‘I think those two players (Ziyech and Werner) are hopefully going to add to us in that case and then after that what comes in the summer come after the next few huge games for us.’
