Arsenal have made a second improved offer for Chelsea attacker Kai Havertz.

The Germany international has already agreed personal terms with the Gunners to the tune of around £200,000-a-week.

After having an opening offer of £50m rejected by Chelsea last week, the Gunners have returned with a new bid.

Arsenal are offering £55m up front, plus a further £5m in bonuses, says the Daily Mail.

The Gunners are eager to close a deal quickly, having maintained negotiations since last week's bid.

For their part, Chelsea rate Havertz closer to £70-75m.
