'Our biggest blessing' - Arsenal star Kai Havertz and wife Sophia Weber expecting first baby as couple show off pregnancy snaps

Arsenal's prolific goalscorer had an exciting announcement to share with his fans on Thursday night with news breaking that he is expecting his first child with his wife Sophia Weber. The pair posted together on Instagram, labelling the event as "our biggest blessing". Unsurprisingly, the comments were flooded with people's well wishes and congratulations as they prepare for a new chapter.

Havertz is undoubtedly enjoying life on and off the pitch in 2024-25. Alongside his personal milestone with Weber, the German forward is closing in on double digits for goal contributions at Arsenal this season. The 25-year-old will want to mark the months before his child arrives with as many goals as possible, and likely a few pieces of silverware as well.

Havertz only needs 10 more goals in an Arsenal shirt to match his total tally from his Chelsea days. The 55-cap Germany international has made 70 fewer appearances for the north London club than he did in the west part of the capital.

Havertz's Instagram post gave nothing away about when his child is due, but it will be at the back of his mind ahead of Arsenal's trip to West Ham this weekend. A win could help them close the gap on either Manchester City or Liverpool, with the pair set to face-off at Anfield on Sunday.
