Kai Havertz infuriated Chelsea fans after he celebrated after scoring at Stamford Bridge during a Premier League game on November 10.

The goal was later chalked off for offside, leaving Havertz with an egg on his face after shushing the home crowd.

The German forward returned to his previous stomping ground but wasn't received warmly by the Blues faithful.

Quick thinking by Declan Rice in a set-piece situation allowed Havertz to beat Chelsea's defence and slot the ball past Robert Sanchez, but VAR adjudged that he had gone too early.

Havertz's celebration against Chelsea

The 2021 Champions League winner with Chelsea had run to the corner flag and shushed his former supporters, much to the disappointment of fans online.

"Humbled real quick,"

@Bruno_Albiol said,

"I don’t know why he hates Chelsea. They give you your 3 best trophies and let you go to the rival side. You still acting this way."

@EiF Soccer said,

"Kai Havertz shushing the Chelsea fans when they stood by his awful performances for so long is nothing short of comical."

When did Havertz leave Chelsea?

Havertz spent three years in West London, where he scored in the 2021 Champions League final against Manchester City. He moved to Arsenal last year in a deal worth £65m, as quoted by Sky Sports.

Gabriel Martinelli opened the scoring for the visitors after beating Sanchez at his near post, but Pedro Neto rescued a point for Enzo Maresca's side. The result leaves Mikel Arteta without a Premier League win in his last four Premier League games.
