Chelsea forward Kai Havertz has completed his paperwork ahead of a move to London rivals Arsenal.

Arsenal’s summer window has got off to a fast start and the move for Havertz has developed quickly since the Gunners first showed their interest in the German earlier this month.

The deal between the two clubs was agreed at the weekend. Havertz’ transfer is expected to be announced today with the 24-year-old set to move for $82m. 

Havertz’s three-year spell brought mixed fortunes following his $113.8m transfer from Bayer Leverkusen. Chelsea’s number 29 scored the winner in the Champions League final in his first season in a royal blue shirt but then struggled to kick on under the management of Graham Potter and then interim head coach Frank Lampard.
