Mikel Arteta says Arsenal’s move for Eberechi Eze move is not a reaction to Kai Havertz injury
Arsenal boss insists Havertz injury did not lead to Eze pursuit
- Mikel Arteta stated that Arsenal's impending £60 million acquisition of Eberechi Eze is not a reaction to Kai Havertz's recent knee injury.
- Havertz is confirmed to miss Saturday's Premier League match against Leeds due to the injury, with the full extent yet to be determined.
- Eze, who was absent from Crystal Palace's recent match, is expected to finalise his transfer to Arsenal this weekend after undergoing a medical.
- The deal for Eze will reportedly push Arsenal's total summer spending to an estimated £250 million.
- Arteta emphasised that the club's substantial investment demonstrates their ambition to win major trophies and lead the Premier League.
