ARSENAL reportedly had eight other names on their transfer wishlist before swooping to sign Kai Havertz.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The German international arrived at the Emirates from Chelsea in a \u00a365m deal over the summer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Having played as a forward with the Blues, Gunners boss Mikel Arteta revealed that he was planning to deploy the 24-year-old in a new position.<\/p>\n

He was desperate to strengthen his midfield ahead of the new campaign, and with Declan Rice coming in as to play the holder, Havertz has been deployed in a No.8 role just ahead of him.<\/p>\n

The star has struggled to impress in that position and had produced just one goal and assist in his first 19 appearances for the North London club.<\/p>\n

After calls from Arsenal legends to replace him in midfield, Havertz silenced some of his critics with the late goal to seal Saturday\u2019s 1-0 win at Brentford to move his team top of the league.<\/p>\n

However, now a list of other potential players that Arteta wanted for the No.8 position has allegedly been revealed.<\/p>\n

The Athletic Football Podcast states that Havertz is highly-rated by everybody at his new club.<\/p>\n

But Arteta and Gunners transfer chief Edu did have other targets in mind – including an England international.<\/p>\n

It claims that Mason Mount, who also left Chelsea for Manchester United in a \u00a360m move this summer, was one.<\/p>\n

Experienced German star Ilkay Gundogan, who quit Manchester City to join Barcelona on a free transfer once his contract expired, was another.<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old captained the Cityzens to the treble last term and his addition would undoubtedly have proven to be a bargain.<\/p>\n

Mohammed Kudus, the 23-year-old Ghana international, was also on the list and they were linked with him for several weeks throughout the transfer window.<\/p>\n

He eventually ended up getting a move from Ajax to the Premier League when West Ham forked out \u00a335m to sign him and has shone for the Hammers so far this season.<\/p>\n

And the other person on that list is a man they have held a long-term interest in.<\/p>\n

That player is Inter Milan\u2019s Nicolo Barella, 26, who has 51 caps for Italy.<\/p>\n

He was believed to be rated at around \u00a343m and the Gunners were linked with him first back in 2019 after sending scouts to watch him at Cagliari.<\/p>\n
