Meanwhile, Kai Havertz has revealed Arsenal’s style of football suits him better than Chelsea’s style of football.

When asked how things are at Arsenal so far, Kai Havertz told ESPN: “It is a completely different style of football than what we played at Chelsea.

“I think it’s a style that suits me very well.

“Of course, it always takes a bit of a while to get used to that again.

“I am two-and-a-half weeks here. It is going to take some time, but I am giving everything to try to perform on a high level.”
