Kai Havertz is a Premier League immortal, with the Arsenal forward earning an entry in the history books that can never be taken off him.
WHAT HAPPENED?
The Germany international, who crossed London when leaving Chelsea for Emirates Stadium in the summer of 2023, has endured a testing debut campaign with the Gunners. Questions have been asked of his £65 million ($82m) price tag, but the 24-year-old has slowly played his way into form.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Havertz has reached eight goals for the season, with his latest strike coming in a 6-0 demolition of hapless Sheffield United. He displayed a clinical edge at Bramall Lane, with a well-taken effort drilled into the back of the net.
DID YOU KNOW?
Said effort has helped to boost Havertz’s confidence, but it has also secured him a place in football folklore. His goal against the Blades was number 150,000 in the English top-flight, with a notable record being secured by the versatile German.
WHAT NEXT FOR HAVERTZ?
Havertz will be hoping to kick on from this point, as Arsenal remain in the Premier League title hunt. They will hit top spot if they overcome Brentford in their next outing, with Mikel Arteta’s side looking to make amends for their dramatic collapse towards the end of the 2022-23 campaign.
