Arsenal forward Kai Havertz has been ruled out of Germany’s two matches during the October international break due to “knee problems”.
The 25-year-old has been in excellent form so far this season and found the back of the net for the sixth time in 10 matches during Arsenal’s comeback win over Southampton on Saturday. Cameron Archer put the visitors in front at the Emirates but the Gunners responded with Havertz firing home the equaliser before Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka completed the turnaround.
However, it has now been reported that Havertz has picked up a knee injury and is set to sit out both of Germany’s National League games over the next two weeks. Julian Nagelsmann’s side travel to Bosnia and Herzegovina on Friday before hosting the Netherlands next Monday.
