Kai Havertz told he is "not the right signing" for Arsenal by Gunners legend

Arsenal have already submitted their first bid for Chelsea star Kai Havertz and seen the offer rejected, which may be a good thing in the eyes of one former Gunners star.

Ray Parlour has publicly questioned why his old side are pursuing the Germany international considering he has struggled to truly settle during his three years at Stamford Bridge. Havertz was a regular in a Blues side that endured one of the worst campaigns in their modern history last term.

However, Gunners manager Mikel Arteta clearly sees something within the former Bayer Leverkusen ace that he likes. So much so that he offered a rumoured £50million for the 24-year-old, though it is widely believed Chelsea will not accept anything less than £60m.
