Provides assist off bench Havertz assisted once to go with three shots (zero on goal) and three chances created in Sunday's 2-1 victory against Crystal Palace.

Impact Havertz came off the bench at halftime in Sunday's season finale win over Palace and made an immediate impact, setting up Noni Madueke's second-half goal by heading a deep corner back across the face of goal for a clean volley finish, marking Arsenal's record-breaking 19th goal from a corner this season. He wraps up the Premier League campaign with two goals and three assists across 12 appearances (seven starts), operating in a reduced role compared to past seasons as Viktor Gyokeres' arrival pushed him down the attacking depth chart while injuries dating back to preseason significantly slowed his momentum. Havertz will now look to make a final contribution in Saturday's Champions League final before linking up with the German squad for the 2026 World Cup.

Impact Havertz has been a polarizing figure at Arsenal but he once again got a key goal for the Gunners as they are one win away from a league title. Havertz should have a role against Crystal Palace in the final match, a squad which has allowed 49 goals in 37 matches.

On bench Tuesday Havertz (knee) is on the bench for Tuesday's match against Atletico Madrid.

Impact Havertz has been selected for the team sheet Tuesday but is not going to play until later in the match, as he is only on the bench. The good news is this gives them another option at forward and a better option to hold the ball if they find themselves with the lead. He will likely feature later in the match one way or another, coming on in the place of Viktor Guyokeres.

Option for Tuesday Havertz (knee) is an option for Thursday's match against Atletico Madrid, according to manager Mikel Arteta. "They are available, they are in the squad, both of them."

Impact Havertz is returning to play as the club plays the second leg of their massive tilt, with the attacker set to be on the team sheet. The real question is how much he will be involved, as the club will likely side with Viktor Gyokeres to start at forward. Either way, the club is at least given another option at forward just in case.

Another game out Havertz (knee) is out for Saturday's match against Fulham, according to manager Mikel Arteta.

Impact Havertz is still working for a return as he tries to help his club win a league title, missing a second match in a row. This leaves the club a bit shorter on options at forward, with Viktor Gyokeres to continue starting while Gabriel Jesus sits on the bench. Havertz will push to make it next week, as they have a big few days ahead, facing Atletico in UCL play on Tuesday before another league match at the weekend.

Out Wednesday Havertz (knee) has been ruled out by coach Mikel Arteta for Wednesday's Champions League semifinals clash against Atletico Madrid, James Olley of ESPN reports.

Impact Havertz will miss at least one game with the issue he picked up in the last EPL meeting with Newcastle. Therefore, Viktor Gyokeres should be the top option to lead the front line in the crucial European match. The German will continue to work on his recovery, hoping to have a few final chances to produce in the 2025/26 season. He had notched two goals and two assists over his latest six club appearances.

Forced off injured Havertz was forced off in the first half of Saturday's clash against Newcastle United due to an apparent knee injury.

Impact Havertz was forced off in the 34th minute of Saturday's clash against Newcastle United due to an apparent knee injury and will undergo further tests in the coming days to determine the severity of the issue. The forward had started the last three Premier League matches, so his potential absence would be a significant blow, especially with the Champions League semi-finals against Atletico Madrid coming up this week, while Viktor Gyokeres is the leading candidate to replace him up front if he is ruled out.

Nets fortunate goal Havertz scored one goal to go with five shots (two on goal) in Sunday's 2-1 loss against Manchester City.

Impact Havertz would see a stroke of luck Sunday, as the attacker would end up capitalizing on a mistake by the City goalie to earn the Gunners' lone goal of the match. However, he would nearly earn another goal late in the match, squandering a free header that would've given his club the draw they needed. This does mark his first goal of the season, now up to two goal contributions.
