Arsenal are reportedly ready to overhaul their attacking options in a sensational summer shake-up that could see Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus depart the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners have identified Atletico Madrid star Julian Alvarez as their primary target and are prepared to take drastic measures to balance the books for a mega-money deal.
Awful Arsenal suffered a major blow in the Premier League title race as they crumbled to a 2-1 home defeat to Bournemouth, their third loss in four in all competitions. Mikel Arteta's side were second best all over the pitch on a dismal afternoon for the league leaders, who missed out on the opportunity to open up a 12 point gap over rivals Manchester City ahead of their game at Chelsea on Sunday.
Mikel Arteta has hailed the impact of his Arsenal substitutes after Kai Havertz and Gabriel Martinelli combined to secure a dramatic 1-0 victory over Sporting CP. The Gunners looked set for a frustrating night in Lisbon before the duo entered the fray to hand the Premier League side a vital edge in their Champions League quarter-final tie.
Kai Havertz has labelled David Raya as the best goalkeeper in the world after the Spaniard's heroics kept Arsenal alive in their Champions League quarter-final first leg against Sporting CP. Despite Havertz netting a dramatic late winner in Lisbon, the forward insisted that his teammate remains one of the most underrated players in the game.
Arsenal will take a 1-0 lead into the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final with Sporting CP after prevailing in Lisbon on Tuesday. Kai Havertz came off the bench to score in the last minute of a match that was seriously lacking in quality right until the final knockings, and the Gunners now have one foot in the last four.
The German national team’s attack shines even without (and with) Deniz Undav; Lennart Karl is proving himself worthy of more than just a trial run; the defence is holding its own despite the odd wobble; and Julian Nagelsmann’s measures are paying off. The winners and losers at the DFB following the March training camp.
Arsenal forward Kai Havertz has opened up on his unique passion for donkeys, describing them as "wonderful" animals while discussing his deep commitment to animal welfare. The 26-year-old, who has recently returned to the Germany national team fold, revealed that his affection for the creatures started at a very young age and remains a significant part of his life away from the pitch.
Arsenal's six-year wait for a trophy will go on for at least a few months more after they were beaten 2-0 by Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday. The Gunners had been tipped to win an unprecedented quadruple, but they fell short in their first attempt to claim some silverware this season, with Mikel Arteta being defeated by mentor Pep Guardiola.
Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres has been told to sharpen his technical game by club legend Anders Limpar. Despite a high work rate, the Sweden international is facing scrutiny over his hold-up play and goal return at the Emirates.
Kai Havertz proved to be the protagonist on his emotional return to the BayArena, converting a late, controversial penalty to rescue a 1-1 draw for Arsenal against Bayer Leverkusen. The German international came off the bench to deny his former side a famous victory in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie. While he stepped up to secure the result, Havertz admitted feeling a sense of sorrow for his former teammates after his decisive strike.
Arsenal left it late to salvage a 1-1 draw against Bayer Leverkusen in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie as Kai Havertz came back to haunt his former club. The Germany international netted from the penalty spot after Robert Andrich had given the hosts the lead as the Gunners earned a result that their overall performance barely deserved.
Germany head coach Julian Nagelsmann has sent a clear warning to his squad ahead of the 2026 World Cup, suggesting that high-profile names could be left out of his final selection. As the nation prepares for upcoming friendlies against Switzerland and Ghana later this month, Nagelsmann has indicated that club status will not guarantee a seat on the plane to North America, emphasising that team chemistry and specific tactical profiles will take precedence over reputation.
Bayer Leverkusen sporting director Simon Rolfes has claimed that Arsenal are "among the top favourites" to win the Champions League after the Bundesliga side were paired with the Premier League leaders in the last-16 stage of the competition.
