• Kai Havertz seems to have no interest in reuniting with former teammates

• The 24-year-old star has been in good form for the Gunners in the campaign

Kai Havertz has offered insight into whether he would want to have any of his former Chelsea colleagues joining him at Arsenal in the future.

The German attacker became part of a growing trend of players crossing the London divide when he made the switch from the Blues to the Gunners last summer.

Although his initial £65 million move from West London to North London raised eyebrows, Havertz has found his stride as the season progressed.

As per Transfermarkt, he has contributed 12 goals and six assists in the league for Arsenal, playing a pivotal role in their pursuit of their first Premier League title in 20 years.
