Former Liverpool star Graeme Souness has queried Arsenal’s decision to sign 24-year-old Kai Havertz from Chelsea in the last summer transfer window.

Havertz joined the Gunners in a deal that was worth £65 million in the summer but so far he is yet to impress at the club.

The German has failed to score any goal contributions in seven appearances across all competitions for the Gunners.

Writing in his column for Daily Mail, Souness said, “Not all of Arsenal’s spending makes sense to me. They’ve laid out £65million on Kai Havertz.

“Surely you are not spending that kind of money on what he’s shown at Chelsea in the past three seasons?

“They have shelled out in the hope that Mikel Arteta can get a very, very different tune out of him than Frank Lampard, Thomas Tuchel or Graham Potter ever did. Good luck with that one, Mikel.”

He added, “For a striker: how many games have you played and how many goals did you score? Havertz has scored 19 Premier League goals across the entirety of three seasons for Chelsea. Please draw your own conclusions.”
