Kai Havertz injury blow forces Arsenal into transfer rethink
Arsenal’s transfer business may not be over after forward’s injury
- Arsenal's Kai Havertz has sustained a knee injury, which will sideline him and necessitate a rethink of the club's remaining summer transfer plans.
- The German international is currently undergoing assessments to determine the full extent and duration of his injury, having already missed a training session.
- Havertz's absence means Arsenal will now actively seek to strengthen their attack, looking for both a left winger and an additional striker.
- This leaves Viktor Gyokeres as Arsenal's only fully fit striker, with Gabriel Jesus still recovering from an ACL injury.
- Havertz, who has scored 29 goals for Arsenal since joining in 2023, previously missed 18 matches last season due to a hamstring tear.
