Havertz is one of many now expected to depart Stamford Bridge in the summer, with Chelsea looking to offload assets in order to comply with Financial Fair Play regulations.
N’Golo Kante has already departed for Saudi Arabia, whilst Edouard Mendy, Hakim Ziyech and Kalidou Koulibaly are expected to follow suit.
Callum Hudson-Odoi has also been tipped for a move to the Middle East. However, the 22-year-old also holds interest from the Premier League and the Bundesliga.
Mason Mount and Conor Gallagher have also been heavily linked with moves away from the club, as the Blues look to make up for spending upwards of £600million in the previous two transfer windows.
If Havertz’ move to the Emirates is completed, it will mark the end of a three-year spell with Chelsea.
During this spell, he earned medals in the Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup.
Not only did he win the Champions League, but he scored the winner against Manchester City in the 2020/21 final.
