I would still buy Pulisic personally if you are going the USMNT route. Injuries haven’t helped him so far at Chelsea, but the talent is definitely there and he’s still very young.

Also Reyna once he gets a Chrome RC

oben, i pulled a green kai press proof from a blaster and said who is this guy and threw it in a box somewhere. so there should be some out there.

I’m surprised with all the young players that have been mentioned, there’s been no talk of Rodrygo.

Better save your money up to buy a case of this years TC Bundesliga. We all know Haaland should be in it and will be straight FIRE!!!! No checklist is out yet. Just imagine if there are autographs of him in it. HOT!!!!!

Topps posted this photo awhile ago of him signing his stickers for products, so best believe he'll be in this year's upcoming sets!

Pretty cool that he's a lefty. He already has a Topps autograph this year. At least one is on the bay already. Blowout is sold out of TC and it's only a Pre-Sale.

Yeah, those could totally be stickers for the BVB set autos

Fantastic player, but no quality options as of yet, just like Reyna and Haaland.

Could be, but I highly doubt they would waste all his autos in that one product.

Hype mania has officially hit Havertz. His blue chrome got the BIN hit for $199 and a gold went five minutes later for $599.

Dang, the $699 per case I paid is looking cheaper and cheaper by the minute. I feel like I stole them now.

Doesn’t surprise me too much, those prices are actually very reasonable considering what they could hit in a few years if Havertz becomes what many think he will be. These will be much more difficult to find than Mbappes TC.

Personally I don’t spend that much on youngsters, but I’m cheap and like low risk. Base TC Bundesliga is my jam right now. I remember picking up an orange optic /99 for $45 sweating bullets haha. If these sales keep up I’ll probably have to list it to be honest.

I feel if he gets hot the first 3-5 games, his base could reach the $100 if not more. I feel one thing that will fuel the fire of his base is the fact there are no base refractors. You go from a base to a purple refractor and down in quantity from there. Does anyone know if his super 1/1 has been pulled yet or any reds?

In a month that blue 9.5 could be a steal at $750.

It's crazy to think that I could be the only person in the USA to list a Havertz base RC on eBay this weekend. There's only a couple right now and they are all overseas. Did no one in America bust this stuff or are all these Kai's hiding in a box of commons that most people have forgotten about?

I might just beat you to the listing (I already posted my case break in the breaks section) but, then again, I could just get lazy or too busy, LOL. Good luck on your case! It's the most fun I've had busting in a LONG time.

I follow the EPL and soccer for last 22+ years and I had never heard of Kai Havertz either until this thread lol

Havertz has actually been linked to a couple of the big clubs in the EPL. He's a major talent.

I honestly probably won't list any of his cards for sale yet. I'm not hurting to make my money back. Heck, in a couple of years the case I keep sealed will make me my money back 2-3 times probably. I'm just looking forward to opening a case of cards again. I haven't opened a full case since 2017 Bowman baseball.

I heard this. Bayern is looking at him along with most of the teams in the EPL. I really hope he stays in the Bundesliga a few more years since that's the league I watch the most. I would love to see him go to Bayern.

Bayern also has Davies, an extremely talented Canadian youngster who has barely been mentioned on here. With this Bundesliga feeding frenzy going on it might be worth looking at grabbing a few of his cards on the cheap if you can.

His rated rc /10 i think it was sold for 1k in fb group

[IndySportsCards]

Regarding Kai, He's German, he will probably choose to stay in the Bundesliga is my guess.

As far as pulling his TC out of boxes, I know of 3 cases busted recently with 0 Color pulled of him. It's not as easy as it sounds.

Two weeks ago you could pick up boxes of this for $40 a box, now I'm seeing them listed at $100 a box, and besides Pulisic, Kai is the main draw so he's driving prices up alone IMHO.

Fortunately he was one of my picks last year and I've been hoarding his stuff, but mostly 2019 Donruss Rated Rookies and Holos, but I was able to snag a blue TC which is at PSA, but I'm in no hurry for it as I think it still has a lot of room to grow.

I agree about Rodrygo.. Pick up his Megacracks rookies while they're still $15-$20.. They won't be this cheap for long.

The big fish are already gobbling him up. Meanwhile I’m sitting here vacillating over dropping $60-70 on a holo

DANG!!! That means he will most likely be in TC this year as well. Gnabry has a TC CL from last year, so he should have a TC Bundesliga this year. More fuel to the fire. This product keeps getting better and better. Someone make a list of who could all be in it. I hope the checklist comes out soon.

Bundesliga will have a great checklist no doubt, but I think Chrome UEFA CL is going to steal some of its thunder. It will be interesting to see how the hobby values each set with players that show up in both sets.
