Arsenal dealt injury blow as Kai Havertz limps off in Germany clash
Havertz was chosen to lead the line in Jurgen Klopp’s first match as Germany manager
Arsenal faced a setback in their preparations for the new season after midfielder Kai Havertz was forced to leave the Germany vs. Netherlands match early due to a muscle injury. Jurgen Klopp opted to start Havertz, who had been sidelined by a knee injury during the previous season, but his night ended after he was tackled by Quinten Timber, resulting in a yellow card.
The forward was then substituted at the half-hour mark, with Younes Ebnoutalib coming on to replace him. Havertz had previously been sidelined with a knee injury early in the season, making his return a crucial one for Mikel Arteta. Sunderland's Brian Brobbey also suffered a setback, being carted off with a hamstring injury after scoring a hat-trick against Manchester City.
