Unfortunately, it seems that Kai Havertz has encountered a bit of a setback during Arsenal's warm-weather training camp in Dubai. The team, under the guidance of manager Mikel Arteta, decided to take advantage of their free weekend by heading to the Middle East for some much-needed training before their upcoming match against Leicester City on February 15th.
According to reports from MailOnline, the Gunners have been dealt a major blow as Havertz suffered a suspected hamstring injury during a training session this week. While the severity of the injury is still unknown, it is possible that the German midfielder could be out of commission for several games.
This is yet another blow for Arteta, who is already without the talents of Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus, and Gabriel Martinelli. To make matters worse, Martinelli is facing a month-long absence due to a similar hamstring injury that he sustained in the recent Carabao Cup loss to Newcastle United.
As the team continues their training in Dubai, it is clear that Havertz's absence would leave them without a recognized forward. With only Leandro Trossard and Raheem Sterling as the remaining attacking options, Arsenal will have to dig deep to overcome this hurdle.
On a more positive note, Saka has joined the squad for their trip to Dubai, although it is unlikely that he will return to the pitch before the start of March. Currently sitting in second place in the Premier League, Arsenal are six points behind league leaders Liverpool. However, if Liverpool manages to secure a victory against Everton on Wednesday night, their lead will extend to nine points.
