Only five matches into his Bundesliga vocation, Jann-Fiete Arp has scored twice and is now securing his place in the beginning XI as the most sultry youthful striker coming through in Germany.
For most youthful players, such a brilliant begin would start a large group of gossipy tidbits connecting some of Europe's best sides, yet for Arp, such theory has been around for quite a while.
Indeed, even before his rise in Hamburg's first team this term, his mind boggling exhibitions have had Chelsea pursuing him and it has as of late been accounted for that they are near achieving a concurrence with him.
With his contract arriving at an end in June 2019, and Markus Gisdol's team battling once more in the relegation , there is discussion that HSV could lose him rashly, yet the Blues are probably going to confront extraordinary rivalry for one of Europe's brightest prospects.
WHO IS JANN-FIETE ARP?
Hailing from the town of Wahlstedt, north of Hamburg, Arp joined the foundation at 10 years old and has gone ahead to thrive in the young groups of his club and nation. His record for each is very surprising.
A goal machine for Hamburg's Under 17s more than two years, he required only a couple of matches in the U19s to persuade he was deserving of a stage up to the best level, as coach Gisdol proclaimed that they have in their positions a "super ability" and one that the club must endeavor to clutch long haul.
Arp has demonstrated him right up until now. An unsafe, versatile and snappy No.9, his sublime rate of 15 goals in 17 games for Germany's U17s saw his stock ascent extensively to pull in Premier League consideration and procure an advancement to the top flight.
He has been just heavenly in international competitions for Germany in the most recent year, scoring seven goals in five U17 Euro matches and another five out of five in the U17 World Cup. Stunningly, he is ending up progressively steady as he creates.
Arp's Bundesliga make a big appearance was a negligible cameo, yet he didn't require long to locate the net in his second when he made advances on head in against Hertha Berlin. The next week, he began at the cutting edge of the Hamburg side and was remunerated with an objective in a star execution against Stuttgart, before playing an entire a hour and a half against Schalke and Hoffenheim.
German fans should need to contrast Arp with any semblance of Miroslav Klose, the unbelievable marksman who broke Gerd Muller's long-standing objective scoring record, yet the 17-year-old really seeks an Englishman for motivation. Tottenham's Harry Kane gives the format to Arp.
"He's a great striker, he plays the way I might want to play," the Hamburg youth said of Kane. "Obviously I endeavor to impersonate him since he is extremely fruitful with his style."
Undoubtedly, there are similitudes. Arp is a tall, solid front-man who doesn't really direct the pace of a game, however he gets into the correct positions and can locate the net from anyplace if offered to such an extent as a bit of leeway.
SHOULD CHELSEA RECRUIT HIM?
The media have been raving about him as of late, yet European goliaths like Real Madrid, Juventus and Chelsea have been monitoring him since last season.
He has demanded he is in no hurry to leave, having officially dismissed the advances of Antonio Conte's side, however he has enormous desire.
"This year has truly gone to a great degree well for me," he told Bild as of late. "However, I additionally realize that I need to keep on working to enhance myself and I truly need to do that at HSV.
"It wouldn't have appeared well and good to go to Chelsea as a 17-year-old. I have scarcely accomplished anything and have for all intents and purposes no involvement in proficient football. The hazard is quite recently far too huge."
The early signs are exceptionally great, in any case, and it appears Arp can wind up noticeably one of Europe's best players around, particularly in the event that he remains grounded.
"Every one of those bits of gossip don't trouble Fiete," his operator Jurgen Milewski said. "Simply let him play, and at last Fiete chooses his own particular what he needs and what he doesn't."
As Chelsea, Real Madrid and Juventus are as of now revolving around, he won't have the capacity to hold off on making that move for any longer.
