“I don’t know what Kai Havertz’s best position is. It’s not a No 9, it’s not out wide, although he did play out wide in the Bundesliga. I think he needs to play off someone or a false nine where he can drift in, maybe play off [Gabriel] Jesus in there.”
Havertz scored his first goal in an Arsenal shirt in the 5-0 friendly win over MLS All-Stars in the early hours of Thursday morning. Arteta hailed his versatility as one of the key reasons for signing him after the game.
The Spaniard said: “I think, again, it’s one of the main qualities he has. He gives us something very different with his quality and size as well, when you have to beat the press for example and use him as a target man.
“So, we will see – for now, he’s playing in the attacking midfield position, but I’m sure throughout the season and throughout games as well, we’re going to have the options to play him in different positions.”
