Arsenal are already planning to end Kai Havertz’s stay at the Emirates Stadium, according to a surprise report in Spain, which suggests Mikel Arteta is ready to “offload” the Germany international to Barcelona or Real Madrid.
Havertz joined the Gunners from Chelsea this summer for €75 million, but the forward has scored just one goal and provided one assist during his time at the new club.

The 24-year-old has produced some outstanding form, with some claiming he is effectively fulfilling the role Arteta bought him to fill as the Arsenal manager – even if that doesn’t mean he gets the goals or assists.
But according to El Nacional, Arsenal’s patience with the player has run so thin that he is set for a sensational offloading, with the Gunners ready to make a €25m move for the player less than six months after his arrival at the club.
– Arsenal’s frustration with the 24-year-old at the Emirates Stadium is more than logical and understandable, and they regret signing him. It is said that they are already considering the possibility of removing him and have asked him to look for a new challenge.
– It is clear that the same price cannot be asked for him and they will now settle for 50 million euros.
Are Arsenal really selling Havertz? Arsenal want Havertz from the Premier League and have offered him to Barcelona and Real Madrid, but while the two powers have the chance to sign him in January, the chances are slim.
They also don’t have the funds to make such a big signing, while Real Madrid, who have watched the player during his time at Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga, have other summer transfer priorities such as filling the vacant No.9 role, preferably with Kylian Mbappe. . . .
In fact, it seems unlikely news that Arsenal already want to offload Havertz and are willing to spend so much on his transfer fee.
