Big boost on the Arsenal transfer window. While the Gunners are not very far from reaching an agreement with West Ham for the transfer of Declan Rice, they have already got their hands on Kai Havertz. The London club announced on Wednesday evening the arrival of the German international striker from Chelsea. The amount of the transfer would amount to 65 million pounds according to the British media. Or 75 million euros. Arsenal say Havertz has signed a “long-term” contract with the vice-champion of England.

Havertz leaves Chelsea following three seasons at Stamford Bridge. Arrived from Bayer Leverkusen in 2020 for an estimated amount of 80 million euros, the German scored 32 goals in 139 matches under with the Blues, including the one that allowed Chelsea to win the Champions League final once morest Manchester City in 2021. More of an attacking midfielder at the start of his Bundesliga career, Havertz spent most of his time playing in a center-forward role for the Blues, who lacked top attackers.
Rice approaching for record transfer
He will probably not evolve in the same register under the orders of Mikel Arteta at Arsenal, who can already rely on Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah at the forefront of his attack. “Kai is a very high quality player, rejoiced the Gunners coach on the club’s official website. He has great versatility and he is an intelligent player. He will bring additional strength to our midfield. and variety to our game.”
Havertz’s signing comes as Arsenal are reportedly close to securing Declan Rice. After making two first offers refused by West Ham, and despite competition from Manchester City which seems to have finally withdrawn from the file, the Gunners would have ended up finding an agreement for the 24-year-old English international midfielder. There would remain only certain details on the terms of payment to be settled for a transaction which would be slightly more than 120 million euros, a record for an English player. Arsenal would thus be preparing to pay nearly 200 million euros to start its transfer window, including the transfer of Havertz. That says enough regarding his ambitions.
