Mikel Arteta has sought to reassure Kai Havertz over his game-time at Arsenal after Viktor Gyokeres’ move to the Emirates Stadium.

Sweden international Gyokeres completed a £64m move to Arsenal last month and scored his first goal for the club in Saturday’s pre-season friendly against Athletic Bilbao.

Gyokeres’ header, provided by an excellent cross from Martin Zubimendi, put Arsenal ahead and the hosts doubled their lead shortly after through Bukayo Saka.

Havertz came off the bench to add Arsenal’s third late on as Arteta’s side ended a somewhat worrying pre-season schedule with an impressive and deserved win.

Ex-Chelsea man Havertz was Arsenal’s first-choice striker for much of last season but Gyokeres looks set to take that slot following his move from Sporting.
