Arsenal legend Ray Parlour has questioned the club's recent signing of Kai Havertz from Chelsea.
The Gunners have paid an astonishing 65 million for a player who has flattered to deceive for the past two seasons.
However, manager Mikel Arteta is said to be a huge admirer of Havertz and believes he can get the best out of the German attacking midfielder.
Havertz was a bit of a shock," Parlour said on talkSPORT.
Because I thought they needed an out-and-out striker.
[Gabriel] Jesus is there, Eddie Nketiah has done great when he's come in but I thought they needed one more top quality striker.
But they went for Havertz and spent a lot of money on him. Edu and Mikel Arteta must see something in him."
