Arsenal's leading scorer, and one of the last remaining attacking options available to Mikel Arteta, has suffered a hamstring injury and is out for the rest of the season.

Arsenal forward Kai Havertz will begin a period of rehabilitation with a focus on being fit for the start of the 2025-26 season.

An Arsenal statement read: “We can confirm that Kai Havertz has sustained a hamstring injury during a training session in Dubai last week. “Subsequent assessments and specialist reviews have confirmed that the injury will require surgery, which will take place in the coming days.
