Kai Havertz brought the title of European champion to Chelsea two years ago – however, the general impression prevails that the Blues were generally not happy with the reinforcements brought from Germany.This does not prevent the leading people from the sports sector of the two-time champion of Europe from looking again in the direction of Germany. In particular, eyes are set toward Dortmund, i.e., Borussia’s goalkeeper Gregor Kobel (25).Kepa Arrizabalaga did not live up to expectations, Edouard Mendy could leave in the summer, while the young American Gabriel Slonina is probably not yet seen as the first option. So the matter is straightforward: one of the primary goals in the summer will be to bring in a new goalkeeper, and according to the German Bild Kobel is very high on the list of priorities of Chelsea’s scouting service.##NAJAVA_MECA_7190513##The big mistake that the Swiss made recently in the Klassiker against Bayern obviously did not affect the opinion of those responsible at the London club. His current employers didn’t blame him much for that mistake in the derby, and the Millionaires are doing everything to keep him in Westphalia. Hence, the same source writes, BVB are ready to offer Kobel a new contract with better financial conditions than the existing one (he currently earns 4,000,000 gross per season).Gregor Kobel is considered one of the best goalkeepers in the Bundesliga, he feels at home in Dortmund but does not like that he is not better positioned in the club’s playing hierarchy. For example, he has not yet been accepted into the team council. That’s one of the reasons he can imagine moving away in the summer.The former first team member of Stuttgart is valued at 35,000,000 euros (Transfermarkt), and Bild does not state with what figure Chelsea could offer and potentially pay to Borussia.🚨 Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel is now on Chelsea’s wish list.#CFC(@BILD) pic.twitter.com/QMBvGx4Cuo— Chelsea Dodgers (@TheBlueDodger) April 18, 2023 And now let’s get back to the topic of ‘Chelsea & Bundesliga’ through numbers. In fact, we can conclude with that… In the last ten years, five players have arrived at Stamford Bridge from Germany: the forgotten defender Baba Rahman, Andre Schurrle, Christian Pulisic, Timo Werner, and the aforementioned Kai Havertz. Almost 250,000,000 euros were spent on all of them.That figure could be significantly increased from the summer.
