Arteta delivers update on Havertz and Gabriel
Kai Havertz at Sobha Realty Training CentreMikel Arteta has delivered an injury update on Kai Havertz and Gabriel Magalhaes ahead of facing Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League.
Kai returned to training before our Carabao Cup victory over Crystal Palace after suffering a knee injury against Manchester United on the opening day of the Premier League season.
Asked about our German's fitness, Mikel said: "I think it will be a matter of days, if not weeks.
"Let's see in the next step how he responds to that. He's a player that we missed a lot, a player that brings the team into a different dimension. So, I'm really happy to have him back very soon."
