PSV manager Peter Bosz recently commended Arsenal’s versatile playmaker, Kai Havertz, in an exclusive interview with The Athletic. Having coached Havertz for three seasons at Leverkusen, Bosz praised the 24-year-old for evolving into one of Germany’s most sought-after players.
Originally deployed on the right wing at Leverkusen, Havertz’s adaptability allowed him to venture further up the field, ultimately taking on the number nine role. Bosz stressed that Havertz, often misunderstood, possesses remarkable abilities that naturally lead his teammates to follow his lead on the field.
Bosz, reflecting on Havertz’s uniqueness, drew a comparison to his own playing style, describing Havertz as playing “piano like Bach” with exceptional intelligence. Despite initial challenges in his debut season with Arsenal, including criticism for missed goal-scoring opportunities, Havertz redeemed himself with crucial contributions, including a pivotal assist against Manchester City and decisive goals against Brentford and Luton Town.
Highlighting Havertz’s character, Bosz shared an anecdote about the player’s departure to Chelsea, where Havertz personally arranged for jerseys with his name to be given to every player and staff member. This gesture, according to Bosz, exemplifies Havertz’s character.
Currently boasting five goals and one assist across all competitions, Havertz’s recent performances suggest growing confidence and Arsenal’s satisfaction with their investment. There is an optimistic outlook that the talented player has much more to offer in the upcoming matches, signaling a promising future for Havertz at Arsenal.
