Viktor Gyokeres Nears League Start Before injured Kai Havertz Rookie Option Emerges
During this season, Kai Havertz has established himself as Arsenal’s primary striker, delivering decisive goals across seven matches under Mikel Arteta’s system. In contrast, Viktor Gyokeres has seen minimal impact, managing only 29 league minutes so far and being largely restricted to cup competitions and Champions League fixtures.
The situation becomes critical as Havertz battles a hamstring injury acquired during International Championship duties against the Netherlands, requiring a medical assessment within the next 24–48 hours. Should his recovery prove protracted, the club may need to develop a reliable backup option before the pivotal Leeds United match at the Emirates Stadium on October 10th.
