In what appears to be a leaked conversation via Instagram which has been obtained by the Football Terrace Podcast, screenshots have emerged appearing to confirm Havertz is moving to London next month.
It starts with somebody wishing Havertz's sister Lea a happy birthday, before cheekily asking: "My colleague asked me about your young sibling. Does he change clubs?"
To which Lea Havertz replies: "He's moving to London next month."
To which the mystery messenger responded: "Fantastic, Chelsea?"

Chelsea fans took to Twitter to express their delight at discovering the exchange.
One fan wrote: "His sister confirmed he is coming."
Another said: "So apparently Havertz sister has confirmed his move to Chelsea. I just hope this deals goes through with all of these rumours."
While another suggested Chelsea need more additions: "Havertz sister confirms he is coming. Now we need a Lb, Cb , Gk and maybe dm."
A fourth posted: "Havertz will join Chelsea next month confirmed by his sister."
"The Havertz deal is done he is coming to London in August," said another.

Havertz is now back in training with Leverkusen as they prepare for their Europa League clash with Rangers in two weeks.
His international team-mate Leroy Sane appeared to confirm that he was joining Chelsea yesterday, with a slip of the tongue.
"I think Germany has always had very good young German players. Many young players get their chance and develop well in the Bundesliga," he said.
"I think that with [Timo] Werner and Havertz, two Germans in one year, Chelsea did a good job."
