Kai Havertz - knee

Arsenal forward Kai Havertz (26) has been struck by another injury setback, this time involving his knee. The German striker, who had just recovered from a lengthy hamstring injury that sidelined him for 18 games earlier this year, is now being evaluated by club medical staff to assess the severity of this new issue.

This development is particularly troubling as Havertz had only just made his comeback—coming off the bench in Arsenal’s season-opening 1–0 win over Manchester United. He did not participate in a recent open training session, signaling the onset of this fresh setback. The club currently awaits further diagnostics to determine his recovery timeline.
