\n
Kai Havertz has taken the time to reflect on his debut season with Arsenal, expressing his delight at winning over the club\u2019s fans following his divisive transfer from Chelsea.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Supporters had questions aplenty last summer when the Gunners completed a \u00a365m move for Havertz, who had struggled to live up to expectations in three seasons at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n
Arteta\u2019s original strategy involved deploying Havertz as an attacking midfielder, aiming to fill the role previously held by Granit Xhaka. However, the German faced challenges adapting to this position, and after Gabriel Jesus suffered an injury and Eddie Nketiah experienced a loss of form, Havertz was redeployed as a centre-forward, where he eventually found his stride.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m a person who needs time when I get into a new environment,\u201d the 24-year-old told\u00a0Welt Am Sonntag<\/em>. \u201cI\u2019m shy at first, a bit reserved, and not someone who comes out of my shell straight away.<\/p>\n
\u201cI always need a bit of time at the beginning and have to warm up to people \u2013 that was also the case after my move from [Bayer] Leverkusen to\u00a0Chelsea. Once that happens, everything falls into place.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

\n
Havertz scored 13 goals and assisted seven in the Premier League 2023\/24 season as\u00a0Arsenal\u00a0ran\u00a0Manchester City\u00a0close to the title for the second year running.<\/p>\n
For the role the German played for the Gunners in this campaign, manager Arteta stated \u201cit is impossible not to love him\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cA sentence like that means a lot to me \u2013 and I think he said it at the start of the season, at a time when things weren\u2019t going so well after my move from Chelsea to Arsenal,\u201d Havertz said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat helped me a lot because it was something that happened off the pitch. I think a lot of things in football aren\u2019t just decided on the pitch by the game, but also by how you treat each other and live by basic human values.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt wasn\u2019t easy at Arsenal either at the beginning. The Chelsea fans were angry that I left, and the Arsenal fans weren\u2019t that enthusiastic either because things didn\u2019t go so well at the beginning. Then you get strength when the coach, your teammates and the people close to you stand by you and support you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Havertz added: \u201cTrust is a big word \u2013 I\u2019m cautious about that, I don\u2019t find it easy to trust people. I feel like I have one friend outside of football, but otherwise there aren\u2019t many people I let close to me. But I can distinguish quite well between the people who are serious about me and those who only want something from me when things are going well.\u201d<\/p>\n
