Leon Bailey has lauded praise on Kai Havertz after the youngster put in yet another impressive performance in Bayer Leverkusen's 3-2 win over SC Paderborn on Saturday.

"He was the oustanding player in a strong team against Paderborn. He's young, smart, has a lot of quality and is able to make the difference on the pitch even at a young age. It reminds me of me when I was at that age," the 22-year-old said, according to Rheinische Post.

At the age of just 20, Havertz has already made 107 appearances for Bayer Leverkusen with 30 goals and 22 assists to his name.
