Kai Havertz has revealed that leaving Chelsea to join their city rivals Arsenal was the best decision he could have made.
The German attacker joined the Gunners in the summer of 2023 in a £67.5 million deal after spending three years with the Blues, where he won the UEFA Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, and UEFA Super Cup.
After a slow start at Arsenal, failing to register any goal contributions in his first six games, the towering attacker went on to score 14 goals and provide seven assists during the 2023-2024 campaign.
