Havertz has picked up a muscular injury that will keep him sidelined for several weeks, according to The Athletic.

As a result, he will miss the North London Derby on 22 February and a key run of domestic fixtures.

Setback after strong return

The 26-year-old had only recently returned from a knee injury that kept him out for much of the first half of the campaign.

However, he made an immediate impact after his comeback.

He scored two goals and added two assists in his last four appearances before this latest issue.

Havertz’s absence removes an important part of Arsenal’s pressing structure and attacking movement.

As a result, Arteta must now adjust his forward setup for the Brentford clash and the games that follow.

Squad depth now tested

Arsenal expect changes across the frontline as the team adapts to his absence.

Depth and rotation will now play a decisive role in maintaining momentum.

The injury creates another challenge in a tightly contested title race, where consistency remains vital.

Arsenal must now rely on squad balance and structure as they navigate a demanding run of fixtures without one of their key attackers.
