Arsenal forward Kai Havertz is reportedly set to miss the rest of the season after tearing his hamstring during their warm-weather training camp in Dubai.
As per The Athletic, it is unclear whether Havertz will require surgery on the hamstring injury, but the German will not feature anymore this season.
The 25-year-old is Arsenal’s top scorer this season with 15 goals across 34 matches in all competitions, including nine goals in 21 Premier League appearances.

Havertz joins a growing injury list for the Gunners, comprising Gabriel Jesus (anterior cruciate ligament), Bukayo Saka, and Gabriel Martinelli (both hamstring).
Jesus tore his ACL during Arsenal’s FA Cup fourth round tie against Manchester United last month. Saka, meanwhile, travelled with the team to Dubai but is expected to be out until March, having undergone hamstring surgery in December.
Martinelli is expected to be out for at least four weeks after sustaining a hamstring injury against Newcastle United on 5 February.
Havertz’s injury leaves Mikel Arteta’s side with fewer options in attack, with the Gunners now left with the trio of Leandro Trossard, Raheem Sterling, and teenager Ethan Nwaneri.
Arsenal are currently second in the Premier League standings, six points behind leaders Liverpool, who are up against Everton in the final Merseyside derby at Goodison Park. Although out of both the FA Cup and League Cup, the Gunners are in the last 16 of the Champions League.
They will visit the King Power Stadium on Saturday to take on relegation-threatened Leicester City in the league.
