Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has given his verdict on Kai Havertz.
Arteta has noted the attitude that Havertz has shown for Arsenal since his move from London and Premier League rivals Chelsea in the summer of 2023.
So, what has Mikel Arteta said about Arsenal midfielder Kai Havertz? Let’s take a look.
Mikel Arteta comments on Arsenal midfielder Kai Havertz
Well, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has been speaking about Kai Havertz. The Gunners boss has been hugely impressed with him.
Arteta has said that Havertz is willing to play anywhere for Arsenal. The former Manchester City coach has been hugely impressed by the attitude that the Germany international has shown.
Havertz has played as a centre-forward, attacking midfielder and centre-midfielder for Arsenal this season. He even played as a left-back for Germany.
The 24-year-old Germany international has made 16 starts and seven substitute appearances in the Premier League for Arsenal this season.
Havertz, who joined Arsenal from London and Premier League rivals Chelsea in the summer of 2023, has scored four goals and provided one assist in those games.
The German star has scored one goal in five starts and one substitute appearance in the UEFA Champions League for the Gunners this season.
Arteta told Football.London about Havertz: “I love him. I think we all love him as a player as a person, everything that he brings to the team.
“There were two or three moments the other day at 4-0, 5-0, 6-0 with how he attracts people, how he’s constantly attacking the box and how he affects the play that I really like.
“If you ask him to play as a nine, as a left attacking midfielder, as a right attacking midfielder, on the base defending, he does it. He’s just a joy to work with.”
My View: Kai Havertz will play his role for Arsenal in title quest
In my opinion, Kai Havertz will play his role for Arsenal in the final weeks and months of the season.
Arsenal are aiming to win the Premier League title this season. Havertz is a regular in the starting lineup, and I think that the German star will have a big role to play.
The versatility of Havertz is a boon, and I think that he will have to chip in with goals at crucial times.
