Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has cast doubt on Arsenal’s Premier League title credentials, insisting that the Gunners will not win the league with Kai Havertz as their main striker.
Arsenal are set to resume their league campaign later this month, currently trailing table-toppers Liverpool by six points. Arne Slot’s side also has a game in hand, further complicating Arsenal’s title aspirations.
One of the main concerns surrounding Mikel Arteta’s team has been their lack of a traditional goalscorer, with Havertz now deployed as the focal point in attack. While the German international has netted nine league goals this season, he has also squandered key chances in crucial matches, leading to calls for reinforcements in the striking department.
Despite Arteta expressing openness to signing attacking options in the January transfer window, Arsenal ultimately refrained from bringing in a new forward. Fowler believes this decision could prove costly as the season progresses.
