How Arsenal could line up with new-look midfield after January transfer window if they move Kai Havertz to left-back

KAI HAVERTZ could be set to kickstart a miniature mid-season revolution at Arsenal after performing in a new role over the international break.

Havertz was signed from Chelsea by Mikel Arteta to play on the left side of Arsenal‘s midfield.

However, after a low-key start in the new role, the Gunners may be open to exploring a change.

Reports have linked Arsenal with a transfer for Ruben Neves and Florian Wirtz.

Havertz, well known for his versatility, could also facilitate this change after he was handed by new position by Germany manager Julian Nagelsmann.

The 24-year-old scored after just four minutes for his national team while playing at LEFT-BACK against Turkey.

His night ended in despair after giving away a penalty for a handball in the 3-2 defeat, but his new role could offer some interesting solutions for Arteta.

Arsenal have struggled with injuries at left-back this season so the durable Havertz could now be a solution to fill in there.

The rest of the team would largely remain the same except for some new faces in midfield.

Martin Odegaard may drop out of the XI for one of Neves or Wirtz following his struggles this season.

Arsenal could even have a new face up front after reports in Italy linked them with a January transfer for Juventus ace Dusan Vlahovic.

The Gunners sit third in the Premier League after 12 games and are one point off of league leaders Manchester City.
