Havertz Becomes Premier League's Top German Scorer as Arsenal Beat Liverpool at Anfield
English Premier League · 19:27:23 - Tuesday, 3 November 2026

Arsenal forward Kai Havertz has become the Premier League's all-time leading German goalscorer after netting his side's opening goal in their victory over Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.

The 25-year-old's strike moved him past the previous record held by former Manchester City and Liverpool midfielder Dietmar Hamann, establishing Havertz as the most prolific German player in the competition's history.

Havertz's goal came during the English Premier League fixture at Anfield on November 1, 2026, helping Arsenal secure three points away to their title rivals. The Germany international has been in strong form for the Gunners since his summer move from Chelsea.

The milestone adds to Havertz's growing legacy in English football, having previously won the Champions League with Chelsea in 2021 before his transfer to North London.
