Kai Havertz is unlikely to join the Bundesliga this summer.
A report circulated by the BBC Sport will undoubtedly attract the attention of Arsenal fans, with a famous outlet claiming that the German club is retaining the 26-year-old.
This is because the striker’s 2024/25 finale is difficult to end, as Havertz suffered a hamstring injury in February.
Since then, the German international has reported pre-season training ahead of the upcoming season.
Bundesliga clubs haven’t pushed for Arsenal’s Kai Havertz
Despite such reports, it appears that former Bayer Leverkusen’s gems returned to the Bundesliga.
A simple reason is that clubs outside Bayern Munich and Dortmund cannot afford Havertz.
“As far as I know, there is no Bundesliga side that wants to sign players. I can say with confidence that it is difficult for most Bundesliga clubs to pay him.” Christian Falk has exclusively notified Fackaughtfore.
“So, if Dortmund and Bayern don’t knock on the door, other alternatives are not realistic.”
The forward made 20 goals in all games before being injured, which is his total number of ended at the 2024/25 season.
Harvez wants to stay in the Premier League
It must be said that Kai Havertz personally does not seem to be in a hurry to cut his time in London for a short time.
“On the other hand, it is worth pointing out that Havitz wants to stay at the UAE Stadium,” Bundesliga insiders continue to add.
“So there is nothing serious about potential transfers from the Premier League.”
To defend the Gunners’ title certificate, it is difficult to predict how the Premier League title battle might perform last semester.
This is not to say that Liverpool has taken the decline in its ultimate success. But there is no doubt that the lack of injuries to key players like Havertz and Bukayo Saka has adversely affected their hopes of winning their first league title since 2003/04.
| Player | Target | Assist |
| Bukayo Saka | 6 | 10 |
| Leandro Trossard | 8 | 7 |
| Gabriel Martinelli | 8 | 4 |
| Kai Havertz | 9 | 3 |

Compared to Liverpool’s last semester, 17 fewer goals were registered in the UK’s top flight, suggesting that Mikel Arteta’s man still needs to invest in offensive reinforcements. At this point, they seem to be taking steps to tick the box and speaking through Sports at Viktor Gyokeres in Lisbon.
However, keeping their No. 29 fits in the 2025/26 campaign will certainly benefit the next time the title challenge is maintained.
Catughtoffside editor Mark Brus shared this insight on Kai Havertz:
We know that Arsenal is working to sign Viktor Gyokerers from Lisbon Sports, and the striker has long been the Gunners’ biggest target this summer, but I think that means any uncertainty about Kai Havertz’s future.
For now, I still hope this German International can play a key role. Most Arsenal fans may agree that he is an underrated member of our team and is able to perform well in the lead or midfield, so even if Gyokeres or other new center forwards arrive, he will certainly still get a lot of minutes.
One of Arsenal’s biggest problems last season was injury, which means playing Mikel Merino as a temporary striker for a few weeks – which I’m sure Mikel Arteta will be desperate to avoid, so squad depth will be important.
I doubt he would be happy to lose Havitz, so if we see any offensive players leave, I hope Leandro Trossard is most likely, or most likely, Gabriel Martinelli, if the reports about Saudi clubs ready to pay a lot of money, prove that is accurate.
