Arsenal are already missing a number of senior forwards with Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka among those sidelined. Arsenal could be dealt a blow in their Premier League title quest after Kai Havertz suffered an injury scare during the club's warm-weather training camp in Dubai. The 25-year-old is set to be assessed in the coming days to determine his availability for Arsenal's return to Premier League action against Leicester on Saturday.
Although details of the extent of Havertz's injury are vague, his possible absence would provide a serious headache for manager Mikel Arteta after the Gunners failed to bolster their attacking options during the recent transfer window. Havertz had been due to lead Arsenal's line for the remainder of the campaign, with Arteta even admitting it was possible the Germany international could be forced to play every game.
Gabriel Jesus is out for the season after he suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury last month. Bukayo Saka has been absent since December but it is hoped the England international - who travelled with his team-mates to the Middle East - could return next month. Gabriel Martinelli also faces a spell on the sidelines after he was forced off injured in Arsenal's Carabao Cup second-leg semi-final defeat at Newcastle last week.
