The club has been in recent contact with Havertz and Chelsea over a move and is expected to step up efforts in pursuing a deal.

The 2007-born midfielder, Ethan Nwaneri, will see his ‘schoolboy registration’ at Arsenal expire at the end of June. The Athletic is reporting that there is an internal belief that Nwaneri will not re-sign with Arsenal. Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United are all monitoring the situation and could pound come July. Nwaneri made Premier League history when he subbed against Brentford, making him the youngest ever player to make a Premier League debut.
