ARSENAL are closing in on a £65million deal for Chelsea star Kai Havertz.
And the German is set to undergo a medical after agreeing personal terms.
Arsenal are nearing a £65m swoop for Kai Havertz
David Ornstein claims Havertz is on the verge of a cross-London switch with Arsenal and Chelsea nearing an agreement on terms of payment.
It’s reckoned the Gunners will pay the bulk of their £65m in instalments, with Chelsea also entitled to bonuses down the line.
Havertz has already agreed personal terms with Mikel Arteta’s side.
And a medical is being scheduled as all parties prepare to finalise the transfer.
It’s reckoned Havertz will be paid £200,000-a-week at the Emirates.
Arsenal moved quickly to prepare a contract, with Chelsea equally keen on a swift sale.
And Havertz is now set to become the 14th player to star for both sides in England’s top flight.
The German joined Chelsea from Bayer Leverkusen for an initial £62m in 2020.
Havertz went on to score 32 goals in 139 games while winning the Champions League.
But Chelsea’s need to trim their squad for new boss Mauricio Pochettino has seen Havertz sacrificed along with several teammates.
