Arsenal forward Havertz to have knee surgery

Image caption, Kai Havertz played 30 minutes for Arsenal against Manchester United on the opening day of the seasonArsenal forward Kai Havertz will have surgery on a knee injury, but is not expected to be out for a significant amount of time.

The 26-year-old featured in the opening win over Manchester United from the substitutes' bench, but missed the 5-0 victory over Leeds with the problem.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta said before the Leeds match that "we need more time" before determining what course of action Havertz's injury required.

The hope is that the Germany international will be out for weeks rather than months.

That will give Arteta some relief as he is already without winger Bukayo…
