Havertz, who had a challenging time at Chelsea, was an unexpected signing by Arsenal in the last transfer window. Despite scoring a crucial goal in Chelsea’s Champions League victory in 2021, his overall performance in West London did not standout. Many fans were surprised by Mikel Arteta’s decision to bring the attacker to Arsenal.
As predicted by many, Havertz has struggled to make a significant impact at Arsenal. Pennant suggests that the club should have considered investing in Wirtz, an alternative German player, instead of Havertz.
He said, as quoted by The Sun:
“I think Arsenal should have gone for Wirtz, his footballing IQ is off the charts.
“He’s not a speed merchant but he’s clever on the ball and he seems to always pick the right pass.
“His assists are great, he has an eye for goal and I think he’d be a fantastic addition to Arsenal, he’d fit in perfectly there.
