"We're ready..." - Kai Havertz risks angering Chelsea fans with tweet ahead of Arsenal transfer

Chelsea star Kai Havertz risked angering Blues fans as he posted a tweet alongside a current team-mate ahead of his impending move to Arsenal.

Havertz completed the first part of his medical over the weekend, according to Fabrizio Romano, as he edges closer to sealing a £65 million move to the Emirates Stadium this summer.

His impending move represents the latest in what has been somewhat of a firesale from Chelsea, with defender Kalidou Koulibaly having joined Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli for an undisclosed fee on Sunday.

In addition, Blues players Hakim Ziyech and Edouard Mendy are also close to completing moves to Saudi Arabia.

But another key departure is that of Mateo Kovacic, who is close to signing for reigning treble winners Manchester City.

It was announced on Monday that club captain Ilkay Gundogan would leave at the end of this month to join Barcelona, although Kovacic is not a direct replacement.

According to the Manchester Evening News, the Croatian midfielder will join Pep Guardiola's side for an initial fee of £25 million plus £5 million in potential future add-ons.

And taking to Twitter, Havertz risked disappointing Chelsea fans by posing with Kovacic.

Havertz sends Arsenal 'hint' on social media

In the post, Havertz could be seen wearing a suit alongside Kovacic, who was also donning a suit.

He simply captioned the post: "We're ready."

That wasn't his only post, however. He also grabbed a photo alongside both Kovacic and Andreas Christensen, the former Chelsea centre-back who joined Barcelona on a free transfer last summer.

All three players will likely become ex-Blues stars in the coming days - and Havertz is set to re-unite with a former Chelsea team-mate upon his arrival at the Emirates Stadium.

That team-mate is none other than Jorginho, who left Stamford Bridge to move across London in January.

He also posted a selfie with Havertz to Instagram, with a series of eye emojis and a laughing emoji alongside it.

All four players were attending the wedding of Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, who has also been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge this summer.
