Mount has been linked with a move away from Chelsea this summer, with reports suggesting that the England international has already agreed on terms with Manchester United.
Havertz, on the other hand, is expected to remain at Chelsea this summer.
Speaking with DAZN Bet, Johnson said, “I know he has had a few big moments there and won a few big trophies, but I think if it was between keeping him or Mount, I would much rather keep Mount. Havertz is a good footballer, but I don’t think he really suits the Premier League.”
He added: “Everything he does is so slow and lethargic and although he is a very technical player, it helps when you’re in the Bundesliga playing for a top team and doing everything really methodically with more time afforded on the ball. I also think he would bite your arm off to go back to Germany, so if Chelsea have to get rid of a marquee name this summer, I think it will be him.”
