Kai Havertz Out for Season Following Serious Thigh Injury

The Arsenal forward and German international will undergo surgery, sidelining him until next season and ruling him out of key matches for club and country.

• Kai Havertz, Arsenal's leading scorer this season with 15 goals, sustained a severe thigh injury during training in Dubai last week.
• Arsenal confirmed that Havertz will undergo surgery in the coming days and is not expected to return until preseason preparations for the next campaign.
• The injury is a significant setback for Arsenal, currently second in the Premier League, as they chase league leaders Liverpool.
• German national team coach Julian Nagelsmann expressed support for Havertz, calling the injury a 'bitter loss' for the team ahead of the Nations League quarterfinal against Italy in March.
• Havertz's absence compounds Germany's challenges, as Florian Wirtz is also unavailable for the March match due to suspension.
