Always find out what your preferred football player drives. Should Patrick Mahomes be present, you know he is riding in the all-white Rolls-Royce Cullinan. Objective is OBJ. More of a Urus type Lamborghini man. Oh, and before he wrecked a Porsche 911 Turbo S one day after practice, Myles Garrett had one. Regarding other forms of “football,” though, what about I mean football by that as well.Regarding costly rides, football players are not the kind of people who put second to someone. And no, you don’t have to be Cristiano Ronaldo or Zlatan Ibrahimovic to purchase some of the greatest automobiles in the world — if you play in one of Europe’s top leagues, you’re making millions of euros annually, to say the least.
Use Kai Havertz as one example. Playing for Arsenal FC in the Premier League, he is an offensive midfielder whose market value, based on Transfermarkt, is around 70 million euros, or $75 million. Given his stated annual income of around $15 million, it is understandable that his driveway resembles something out of an AMG factory.
The 24-year-old German star let someone from Mercedes-AMG visit him, leading to a brief and interesting conversation about his AMG GT 63 S – which he referred to as “matte black.” We believe it is actually the Manufaktur Graphite Grey Magno colourway. Still, it’s a fine car and looks even better when parked next to his AMG-spec G-Wagen and what resembles a Mercedes EQS SUV just off-camera.
Naturally, the AMG GT is the main draw; as this is a 63 S variant, we can also inform you that it runs on a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, good for 630 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque. 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system and AMG Speedshift 9-speed automatic gearbox send everything to all four wheels via the automaker.
Flooring the throttle will straight forwardly send you to 60 mph in just 3.1 seconds, then max you out at 195 mph. With regard to driving on public roads, Havertz hopefully knows to avoid pushing the envelope of his vehicle.
For his team, the Arsenal player scored 14 goals overall—13 in the Premier League and one in the Champions League. That is fourteen goals in fifty-one games. Not good, not bad. Having 405 professional games, he has 120 goals overall; 32 of them are from the Premier League and 36 from the German Bundesliga. Before switching to the EPL, Havertz used to be at Bayer Leverkusen and had played for Arsenal and Chelsea.
Regarding his present club, they came in second behind Manchester City and sadly lost out on title glory this past season by two points. Improved fortune next year.
