Arsenal believe Kai Havertz will return to action before the end of the season. The German forward suffered a muscle injury during the clash with Newcastle United at the weekend.
The 26-year-old holds his thigh and left the pitch early in the game. The club has not given an exact date for his comeback. However, they expect him to feature in their remaining four league fixtures.
The Gunners are fighting for their first Premier League crown since 2004. They also face a busy schedule in Europe. Mikel Arteta’s team will play Atletico Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final on Wednesday.
Havertz has already missed much of this campaign. A knee injury kept him out for six months earlier in the season. He came back in January and has scored five goals in 19 matches since then.
