KAI HAVERTZ has been ruled out for the rest of the season in a major dent to Arsenal’s title challenge.
Havertz picked up the injury after sustaining a torn hamstring during the team’s training camp in Dubai.

It was revealed earlier this week how the German was in the treatment room after suffering the injury.
With the 25-year-old now out for the remainder of the season, he adds to the Gunners already devastating list of attacking injuries.
Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli are all sidelined through injury, leaving Mikel Arteta with scarce few options up front.
Raheem Sterling, Ethan Nwaneri and Leandro Trossard are the only recognised first-team attackers who are now not crocked.
It is unclear whether Havertz will need surgery though his focus will now shift to trying to get fit for the start of next season.
