Bayer Leverkusen set for Kai Havertz reunion in Arsenal friendly
Bayer Leverkusen have added a friendly match against English Premier League outfit Arsenal and ex-Werkself man Kai Havertz to their 2024/25 pre-season schedule.
Xabi Alonso's Bundesliga and DFB Cup holders will face the 2023/24 English Premier League runners-up at the Emirates Stadium in London on 7 August (kick-off: 7pm CEST).
It promises to be a special occasion for Havertz, who made his senior breakthrough with Leverkusen as a teenager during the 2016/17 season. He went on to play 150 times for Die Werkself in all competitions, before moving to Chelsea in summer 2020, and Arsenal three years later. The 25-year-old forward is currently spearheading host nation Germany's attack at UEFA Euro 2024.
