Former Liverpool and Manchester United striker Michael Owen has hailed Arsenal’s Kai Havertz, who is starting to prove his doubters wrong after he played a key role in his side’s Premier League 2-0 win over Brighton on Sunday.
A goal each from Havertz and Gabriel Jesus gave Arsenal the win over Brighton at Emirates Stadium.
Havertz, who endured a difficult start to his Arsenal career, is beginning to transform at the North London club. The Germany international is now finding form and showing signs of a bit of promise, according to Owen.
“Havertz has come into a little bit of form; if he can continue this and grow into more of a permanent fixture and a confident player, then that could, as the old saying goes, be like a new signing,” Owen told Premier League Productions after the game.
“He’s been very, very poor since he’s been at the club, but all of a sudden he’s showing signs of a bit of promise.”
