Kai Havertz could be among the candidates when the Premier League’s Goal of the Season prize is awarded in May.
The Chelsea forward scored one of best goals of his career during Saturday’s game at Leicester City.
It arrived in added time at the end of the first half to put Chelsea 2-1 up after earlier strikes from Ben Chilwell and Patson Daka.
Havertz was stood in the semi-circle just outside of the Leicester penalty area when he read the mind of Chelsea teammate Enzo Fernandez.
As Fernandez stylishly scooped a lofted through-pass over the Leicester defense, Havertz had already started his run.
That run was timed to perfection as he stayed onside before beating Leicester keeper Danny Ward with a sublime first-time finish.
Havertz punished Ward for straying off his line as he executed an inch-perfect lob before the ball had hit the floor.
