Since then, the dynamic playmaker has had difficulty at the Emirates, making just 12 appearances in all competitions and recording just one goal and one assist.

However, that hasn’t stopped the Germany international from boosting his earnings.

The 24-year-old recently agreed to a lucrative contract with PUMA, which declared their intention to work closely with the athlete.

Following three great years at Chelsea, where he contributed to the Blues’ 2021 Champions League victory with his game-winning goal against Manchester City, Havertz will represent the brand as its face.

The German will be wearing the brand’s FUTURE boot every time he steps inside the pitch for Arsenal and Germany.

Havertz said: “Growing up in Germany PUMA has always been an iconic brand with some of the greatest players ever wearing their products.

“PUMA has always been an innovative brand when it comes to football boots and the way they work with athletes.

“When I met with the team and discussed plans for the future, I knew this was the right fit for me.

“They understand athletes and really want to be collaborate with their players; it really is a family atmosphere.

“Wearing the FUTURE boot is the perfect fit for my game and is a boot I was eager to move into, there is no other boot like it.

“PUMA are not only excelling as a brand on the pitch but are making huge waves in other areas of sport and fashion.

“We are working on some exciting projects, and I am looking forward to what the future holds.”
