Arsenal are edging closer to securing the deal for Kai Havertz with a medical set to be done this weekend.

Havertz’s deal to North London is also expected to be announced next week after all agreements have been made and paperwork signed.

The Germany International is set to pen a five-year-deal with Mikel Arteta’s side and he will reportedly earn £210,000 per week.

Chelsea are believed to be satisfied with the £65 million offer tabled by Arsenal for Kai Havertz.

The 24-year-old joined Chelsea in 2020 for £75 million from Bayern Leverkusen and he flattered to deceive on many occasions.

However, he was instrumental in the club’s 2020/21 Champions League final triumph against Manchester City.

Havertz scored the decisive goal which handed Chelsea the victory over Manchester City in 2021.

The Blues will recoup a profitable amount from sale of Kai Havertz, although £10 million less than the amount they spent in acquiring the attacker in 2020.

Todd Boehly’s Chelsea are in need of cash to balance the books and they are already making needed steps towards that.

Havertz’s incoming to Arsenal will offer Mikel Arteta’s side more attacking input, trophy-winning experience and versatility in attack.

The Gunners finished 2nd in the 2022/23 season despite being at the summit of the Premier League table for most parts of the campaign.

Kai Havertz had a considerably low output in terms of goals at Chelsea but he scored when it mattered most.

Mauricio Pochettino looks ready to stamp his foot in quickly and it appears many popular names in the Chelsea squad are not in his plans for the upcoming season.

After finishing the 2022/23 campaign in an embarrassing 12th position on the Premier League log, they are set to get rid of players who are surplus to requirements.

Regarding Arsenal, they have also shown a bullish side in the transfer market, chasing and pursuing names they feel will be suitable to their plans.

West Ham reject two Arsenal bids for Declan Rice

They remain in conversations with West Ham United over getting the signature of Declan Rice, even though their two bids submitted so far have been rejected.

West Ham United are demanding an amount in excess of £100 million from any club who desires to sign their captain.

There is growing optimism in the camp of Arsenal that a deal could be struck soon as they are set to send in a third offer after a club-record bid worth £90 million was rejected.

Meanwhile, the Gunners are set to face stiff competition from Manchester United and Manchester City for the services of Declan Rice, with the Citizens set to pay £75 million + £15 million in bonuses across a period of two years.

Manchester United are expected to send in a player-plus-cash bid in order to secure the services of the highly sought after England International.

Anyway, it’s left to be seen who wins the battle in this intense and fierce transfer war.

For Kai Havertz, it is uncertain if he would be a regular starter at Arsenal next term, but it is believed that he will play an important role in Mikel Arteta’s set up.
