Kai Havertz is a German forward who joined Arsenal from Chelsea in the summer of 2023. A product of Bayer Leverkusen’s academy, he scored the winning goal in the 2021 Champions League final for Chelsea before moving to north London, where he has become a versatile and intelligent attacker.
He can play as a striker, as a false nine or in midfield, and he links play well with his movement between the lines and his aerial ability. Mikel Arteta values his flexibility, and he operates in a squad that includes Viktor Gyökeres, Eberechi Eze and Bukayo Saka, so his role can vary from game to game.

We break down where he lines up, how he fits alongside the other forwards and what he offers in big matches, so every update on the German is in one place.
