Kai Havertz came from the bank in Arsenal's opening day victory over Manchester United, but is now ready for an enchantment on the sidelines ready to return to the transfer market
Kai Havertz is ready to be out of operation for Arsenal after picking up a new injury. Havertz spent a long period of last season on the sidelines with a serious hamstring injury.
Since then he has recovered and a replacement appearance appeared in the slender victory of the weekend against Manchester United. But Havertz is now confronted with a new period of absence.
According to athletics, the German picked up a problem with his knee and did not participate in an open training session on Wednesday at the Emirates Stadium. Reviews are reportedly at an early stage and it is unclear about how long oats could be out.
His absence – as well as the current injury problems of Gabriel Jesus – means that the summer of Viktor Gyokeres is the only Fite striker of the club. He has undergone a quiet debut in Old Trafford on Sunday.
The last blow has led to Arsenal launching an emergency transfer plan. The Gunners would now like to add another attacker to strengthen their attacking ranks, because they look to finally get the Premier League title.
Gyokeres, a signing of £ 64 million from sporting, impressed by his debut of competitive Gunners, in which Arteta admitted that there was room for improvement when it came to pressing from the front.
He said: “Well, he has done a lot of things very well. You can see, especially in our high press and rhythm, that we demand that we gave a little too much time in the first half. It is something that we have to work on him, especially there.”
They are connected to Real Madrid star Rodrygo, who was omitted from La Liga -opener of Real Madrid vs Osasuna. However, Xabi Alonso moved to play those rumors and claimed that his omission was pure tactical.
Speaking of his future, Real Baas Alonso said: “These are match decisions. The way the competition went, we needed a different profile. There have been no decisions for the future.
“There is nothing wrong. The World Cup Club was a different context because of the competition it was. Today it is just one game, we can leave the rest behind.

“What counts is this season and of course I count on Rodrygo. It's only one game, we don't have to read too far in the future.
“If he gets those minutes within three months, I can answer you with more certainty. Today it was just the circumstances of the game and my decisions.”
Arsenal was also connected this summer to Crystal Palace star Ebereechi Eze, but he seems to close a move to Rivals Tottenham in North Londs instead.
Arteta is currently preparing his direction for their first Premier League match of the season. After he has defeated United, the Northern London side newly promoted Leeds welcomed to the Emirates Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
