The exciting Euro 2024 Championship is just around the corner and we continue to identifiy some of the players who could make the difference for their nation, with today being Germany’s Kai Havertz.
Havertz had a superb second half of the 2023/24 campaign for Arsenal, where he showed versatility playing in both the number 10 role and at the heart of the attack up top.

Overall Germany stats: 45 caps / 15 goals
2023/24 Club stats: 51 games / 14 goals
Versatility
Kai Havertz will be a key asset to Julian Nagelsmann this summer, as he can operate in the midfield and as a lone striker, so can suit multiple systems if the German boss wants to change things up.
Germany are seemingly light when it comes to strikers – to have Havertz within their ranks who can operate in that role is vital, especially as he predominantly played there for Arsenal last term.
Goal contributions
The 24-year-old had an impressive first season with Arsenal last term, after he chipped in with 20 goal contributions in 37 Premier League games, scoring important goals against top sides in big games along the way.
Havertz has also proven that he can reciprocate this form on the international stage which will be key for Naglesmaann, as he has notched 29 goal contributions in 45 games in all competitions in Germany.
Silverware winner
The creative German international has won the most prestigious club competition during his time at Chelsea, the UEFA Champions League, where he stepped up in the final and scored a vital winner against Manchester City 2021.
The German faithful will be fully aware of this, and will be hoping that Havertz can contribute in the summer and guide them to their fourth European title on home soil.
