‘They will love him’: Ian Wright claims Chelsea have just sold a 24-year-old who will surprise everyone
Ian Wright believes that Kai Havertz’s quality will surprise everyone at Arsenal following his transfer from Chelsea. The German midfielder completed a £65 million move to Arsenal during this summer’s transfer window.
Havertz is highly regarded and has had some standout moments in his career, including scoring the winning goal in a Champions League final for Chelsea. However, there has been a sense that he hasn’t fully unleashed his potential at Stamford Bridge.
One of the challenges for Havertz has been defining his preferred position on the pitch. He has played as a striker, false-nine, winger, number 10, and attacking midfielder throughout his career.
Ian Wright expressed his delight at Arsenal signing Havertz and shared his vision of the German playing as a number 8 for manager Mikel Arteta’s team. In this role, Havertz would replace Granit Xhaka as a box-to-box midfielder who contributes heavily to the attack.
Wright discussed Arsenal’s new signings and expressed confidence in the midfield’s ability, particularly highlighting Havertz’s quality. He believes Arsenal fans will love him and that they haven’t seen the best of him during his time at Chelsea. Wright acknowledged Havertz’s goal-scoring abilities as a drifting number 10 for Bayer Leverkusen and expects him to excel as a number 8 for Arsenal.
While Havertz is no longer Chelsea’s concern following his transfer, observers will be keen to see how he performs at Arsenal. Many believe that he possesses great individual quality and potential, and it’s possible that a change of scenery and system at Arsenal could bring out the best in him.
