Squad depthGoal-getting Centre-forward

K. Havertz is a 27-year-old centre-forward at Arsenal, rated 67 overall by Field Insider's model. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (34.1% of available minutes). He brings 0.77 goal contributions per 90 (0.31 goals, 0.46 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Havertz.

On the season, Havertz graded 28 for current form (age-blind), on 2 goals and 3 assists in 12 appearances (0.772 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 40 → 28). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 67. At 27 Havertz is in his prime years, and a market index of 80.4 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Havertz missed 19 games through injury (knee, jumpers knee, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 12 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Goals / app

2 goals in 12 appearances (0.17 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 5 goal contributions (0.42 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.77 goal contributions per 90 (0.31 goals, 0.46 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 100/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 34.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 67 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.77 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
