Arsenal could be dealt a significant blow in their Premier League title quest after it was reported that Kai Havertz is set to be ruled out for the rest of the season.

The German forward sustained an injury during the club’s warm-weather training camp in Dubai and was due to face further tests on the club’s arrival back in England.

The Athletic reported on Wednesday that Havertz has suffered a torn hamstring and could now miss the remainder of the current campaign.
