Kai Havertz: Arsenal must prove themselves again, and Gyökeres is the worst loser

Kai Havertz said Arsenal must prove they can win again every week, despite winning the Premier League last season. The German player called winning the title the biggest achievement of his career, but stressed that last season's title does not remove the need to maintain their level this season.

Havertz added that the experience of winning the title had made Arsenal's players more mature and better able to handle the challenge of competing for the title, but pointed out that teams start the new season on an equal footing. His comments came in an interview published on the club's official website.

Asked about the atmosphere in training, Havertz named Viktor Gyökeres as one of the team's players most upset by defeat, joking that the Swedish striker gets angry if he loses in training and his teammates make comments to him. He also said he prefers to have reliable defenders on his training team, naming William Saliba or Gabriel Magalhães.

Havertz spoke about his desire to win the World Cup, and said his next footballing ambition is to win the next match, considering that the focus is always on the following game.
