Arsenal has beaten the northern London rivals Tottenham to the signing of Eberechi Eze, with the forward that is expected to join Gunners in the coming days. But the transfer could have serious consequences for Kai haveertz, with Arsenal who only decided to swing for Eze after the German suffered a knee injury.

Arsenal was linked to his former academy player Eze earlier this summer after the 27-year-old lit the Premier League last season. But Gunners initially walked aside, with Tottenham who made a move when they lined towards a deal. But just as it looked like Eze was on its way to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Arsenal dumped with a bid of about £ 67.5 million. And it seems that the prospect of joining his boy’s club is too tempting for Eze to be rejected.

Havertz came from the bench for half an hour when Arsenal defeated Manchester United in their Premier League opener on Sunday.

But he was absent when Gunners held an open training at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday, with news about Arsenal’s quest after Eze hit the headlines hours later.

Eze can play on either the flank but thrives as no. 10 and can be a direct threat to Hafertz’s playing time when Germany’s international returns from its latest concept of injury. And the former QPR player seems to offer a greater threat than havertz in the last third of the plan.

According to OPTA, the Eze 61 shots in the Premier League last season, with HaVertz only handling 44. Of these attempts, 29 was on target compared to havertz 21.

Eze is a much more creative player than HaVertz as well as he created 50 chances for his palace teammates last semester, with HaDertz who only created 14 goal opportunities.

While Hafertz succeeded another goal in the Premier League than Eze – nine compared to eight – the Palace player contributed another five assists and also made 141 more accurate passes in the opposition half. And these figures can be sufficient to convince Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta that Eze should start before Hafertz in the future.

Eze was a surprising inclusion on the Palace Team Arark for his Premier League opener to Chelsea on Sunday, even though he seemed to go towards a move to Tottenham.

And he found the back of the net with a free kick during the first half, but the strike was criticized because of a foul by Marc Guehi.

Eze was then left outside the match day group for the Eagles’ Uefa Conference League-Play-off-collision with Fredrikstad on Thursday evening before his move to the Emirate.
