TRANSFERS Arsenal on verge of completing Havertz’s deal

The German has become one of the top transfer targets for the Gunners, whose initial offer was rejected by Chelsea.

Arsenal are on the verge of completing the signing of Kai Havertz from Chelsea.

The Gunners have been linked with the 24-year-old German, and according to reports, they are close to completing the €80 million deal.

The Blues are said to be ready to cash in on Havertz, who has not lived up to expectations since he was signed.

When he moved to Stamford Bridge from Bayer Leverkusen, the German was seen as a top talent but has struggled to convince. A move to North London could give him a chance to revitalize his career.

Although Havertz is more suited as an attacking midfielder, at Chelsea, he was mostly used as a striker and was expected to score goals.

Mikel Arteta is known for nurturing talents, and Havertz could revitalize his career if he joins the Spaniard at Arsenal. Should he move to the Emirates, he could form a lethal partnership with Gabriel Jesus.

Arsenal are determined to strengthen their squad given that they will be taking part in the Champions League. They have been linked with Declan Rice of West Ham United too.

After coming close to winning the Premier League, they would hope to have a successful campaign on that front next season, and that calls for a bolstered squad.

Chelsea are said to be ready to use proceeds from Havertz’s sale to purchase a dependable goal scorer. And given that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is also expected to leave the club this summer, signing a centre-forwrad becomes a priority.
