Arsenal handed Havertz injury boost after surgery decision

Kai Havertz managed just half an hour in Arsenal’s narrow 1-0 victory against Manchester United on the first weekend of the new Premier League season before picking up a knee injury. It was previously expected that the Germany international would be absent for a longer period, but the forward is set to return to action soon after he decided to undergo surgery.

Arteta claims Eze pursuit wasn’t motivated by Havertz injury

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has dismissed suggestions that the Gunners’ swoop for Eberechi Eze was triggered by Kai Havertz’s injury setback. The north London side moved quickly to finalise a £60 million deal for the Crystal Palace star, beating Tottenham to his signature, but Arteta stressed the transfer had been long in the making and not a reaction to recent fitness concerns.
