Michael Owen has given his verdict on Arsenal midfielder Kai Havertz after watching him in action against Brighton and Hove Albion at the Emirates Stadium.

The former Liverpool and Manchester United striker thinks that Havertz is changing now.

So, what has Michael Owen said about Arsenal midfielder Kai Havertz? Let’s take a look.

Michael Owen praises Arsenal midfielder Kai Havertz vs Brighton and Hove Albion

Well, Arsenal beat Brighton and Hove Albion 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium in the Premier League on Sunday.

Brazil international striker Gabriel Jesus scored the opening goal for Arsenal in the 53rd minute. Germany international midfielder Kai Havertz made it 2-0 on 87 minutes.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta was impressed by the display produced by Havertz, and so was former Liverpool and Manchester United striker Michael Owen, who has noted that the 24-year-old is showing some very promising signs at the moment.

The Mirror quotes Owen as saying about Havertz: “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.”

The pundit added: “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.”

Kai Havertz starting to deliver for Arsenal

In my view, Kai Havertz is starting to turn on the style for Arsenal. The 24-year-old is scoring goals now and is also playing well.

It seems that Mikel Arteta’s perseverance in Havertz is now paying dividends. The former Chelsea player is making an impact and is making a difference. He scored against Luton Town away from home in the Premier League earlier this month.

Arsenal are aiming to win the Premier League title and go far in the UEFA Champions League. It seems that Havertz could play a big role for the North London club in the coming weeks and months.
