'He grabs my face' - Mount on first encounter with future Chelsea team-mate Havertz

Mason Mount has recalled his first encounter with Kai Havertz, which took place in an Under-17 match between England and Germany in 2015.

Mount scored a sublime goal for England in that match, with Havertz closely marking him but unable to prevent the goal.

Havertz and Mount have now been reunited as team-mates at Chelsea, after the former joined last summer from Bayer Leverkusen.
