Havertz Set to Miss Rest of Season Due to Hamstring Injury

The 25-year-old's absence will leave the North Londoners without a recognised striker until the end of the 2024-25 season.

The Athletic first reported a torn hamstring and that his season was likely to be over, external.

Sources close to Havertz expect surgery will be needed after he flew back with the team on Tuesday, BBC sports reported.

Arsenal have yet to comment publicly on Havertz's injury. Manager Mikel Arteta will be asked about the extent of the injury at Friday's news conference before his side take on Leicester City on Saturday.
