Chelsea forward Kai Havertz will have a medical this weekend ahead of completing his move to Arsenal.

Havertz’s medical is likely to take place overseas due to the player’s schedule and, all being well, a formal announcement of his £65m move could come next week.

Chelsea are understood to be satisfied with the deal as Havertz has made it clear he wants to leave Stamford Bridge.

It spells the end of a three-year stint at Chelsea for Havertz, who secured his place in the club’s history by scoring the goal that won them a second Champions League crown in 2021. However, Chelsea signed Havertz from Bayer Leverkusen in 2020 for £75m.
