Kai Havertz added:
"He's an amazing player, a quality player for sure. But yeah, I have to say that I'm happy with the squad."
Thriving under Arteta’s leadership
Havertz’s transition from Chelsea has been smooth thanks largely due to Arteta’s influence and support from teammates and fans alike. He is proving himself as a vital cog within Arteta's side earning plaudits for recent performances.

His impressive performances this season are testament to his talent and adaptability, as well as Arteta's ability to unlock his potential. Despite any ties to former teammates, Havertz is focused on contributing to his current squad's success, demonstrating a level of maturity and professionalism that bodes well for Arsenal’s future prospects.
