Raid the London rivals: Arsenal going for Rice and Havertz

If you thought that after 16 players and 611 million euros spent Chelsea is done in the transfer window, you are wrong. All those players were bought before Mauricio Pochettino became the Blues boss and now he needs a few more players. But Chelsea don’t intend for build a third dressing room to fit them all, there will be a lot of selling in the July transfer window. But apart from a few reserves and youth players, some first team regulars will be on the market, and surprisingly, Chelsea’s recent Champions League hero is one of them – Kai Havertz. Arsenal are looking to sign Kai Havertz from Chelsea and have made an ‘opening proposal,’ reports @David_Ornstein 🔴 pic.twitter.com/PZybcXwimd— B/R Football (@brfootball) June 14, 2023 The German international scored the famous Champions League finals goal against Manchester City and secured the title, and the Blues are not forcing a sale of any kind, but….the player has two more years of his contract, and now is the ideal time to renew him or sell him. And that’s where Arsenal comes in. According to The Athletic, the Gunners are planning some fresh signings and knowing Kai’s contract situation, they have already made an opening bid for the player. And then there is also Thomas Tuchel. Ex Chelsea boss would like to reunite with his former player and Arsenal decided to move in quickly. They hope that Kai haven’t made up his mind yet about the new contract, and also feel that Chelsea needs more funds in order to buy a few more players this July, so they are giving it a go, hoping to get a positive result. Chelsea’s first offer is apparently around 80 million euros, which is too much for the Gunners, but the negotiations will continue. Arsenal and Declan Rice – a match made in heaven that would cost a hell lot of moneyWhile dealing with Havertz, who could play anywhere along the offensive line, the Gunners are hardly pursuing another London rival – West Ham’s Declan Rice. Former Chelsea youngster may have hoped that his old club would come back for him, but that fairytale never happened, as the Blues bought Enzo Hernandez from Benfica. Rice’s departure from the East London club is certain, but to where remains the question. He would be ideal in Arsenal’s squad, where he could play instead of Granit Xhaka or always injured Thomas Partney, but Bayern Munich and Thomas Tuchel like him too. ##NAJAVA_MECA_7318672##
