Arsenal suffers fresh injury blow in title run-in

Arsenal have suffered a fresh injury setback, with Kai Havertz expected to spend a period on the sidelines at a crucial stage of the season. The German has struggled with fitness issues in 2025 and only recently returned from a previous layoff, quickly re-establishing himself as a key figure in Mikel Arteta’s plans.

In his most recent appearances, Havertz has been in impressive form for the Gunners, delivering influential performances and reinforcing his importance to the side. Arsenal had hoped he would remain available for the remainder of the campaign as they continue to compete on multiple fronts. However, ahead of their fixture against Brentford, he sustained another injury that will rule him out for several matches.

Setback at a Crucial Moment

According to Metro Sports, Havertz is set to miss Arsenal’s next two fixtures, although there is currently no clear indication of when he will regain full fitness. The timing of the setback is far from ideal, with the season entering a decisive phase and every point carrying significant weight.

Havertz’s recent displays have underlined his value to the squad, particularly in high-pressure situations. His ability to influence matches in attacking areas has provided Arsenal with an additional dimension, making his absence all the more concerning.
