KAI HAVERTZ has put pen to paper on a mammoth new contract, but it’s not what Arsenal fans think…
Havertz joined the Gunners from London rivals Chelsea in the summer following a £65million deal.
The versatile playmaker has since struggled at the Emirates with only one goal and one assist in 12 appearances across all competitions.
However, that hasn’t stopped the Germany international from boosting his earnings.
The 24-year-old has just signed a lucrative contract with PUMA, who confirmed a long-term partnership with the player.
Havertz will be the face of the company following three successful years at Chelsea, whom he helped win the Champions League in 2021 thanks to his winner in the final against Manchester City.
