Impact Havertz is progressing well in his rehabilitation from a knee injury as he has already increased the load after walking freely. That said, his timeline for a return remains uncertain since it will depend on him, and it could still take a few weeks depending on his daily motivation. That said, with the new arrival of Viktor Gyokeres, the German attacking midfielder could return to a midfield role once fully fit, though he will need to compete for a starting spot.

Undergoes knee surgery Havertz (knee) underwent a minor surgery and is currently recovering, Arsenal announced.

Impact Havertz needed further examination after a knee injury sidelined him and it was decided the best course of action was a minor surgery. The hope for the club is reportedly that Havertz will miss weeks and not months. Havertz was poised to be the backup for Viktor Gyokeres, with his absence opening the door for Mikel Merino as a false nine again.

Impact Havertz is going to need more time to truly identify his injury, with the attacker now heading for more testing on the recent injury. The hope is that it will give them a clearer path, knowing how long his return to play will take. It is still expected he misses at least the next month, leaving Victor Gyokeres as the main forward.

Not spotted training Wednesday Havertz (undisclosed) wasn't spotted in team training during the open session at the Emirates on Wednesday, according to Simon Collings of The Standard.

Impact Havertz wasn't spotted in team training on Wednesday during the open session at the Emirates Stadium due to undisclosed reasons. The forward is now a doubt for Saturday's clash against Leeds United since he recently returned from a muscular injury and might have suffered a setback. That said, the German will likely have to fight for minutes with newcomer Viktor Gyokeres this season, therefore his potential absence will not impact the starting XI.

Impact Havertz was dealt a training injury but has made a quick turnaround, with the attacker featuring off the bench in a friendly. He will be an option for their season opener on Aug. 17, good news for both club and player.

Impact Havertz was absent from the training session and missed the match, though it's not expected to be an overly serious issue. Barring a surprise, Havertz should be an option for the Aug. 17 Premier League opener against Manchester United. New addition Viktor Gyokeres will likely mean Havertz is a bench option, with the ability to provide depth in midfield and the attack. Havertz scored nine goals and added three assists last season.

Impressive before injury Havertz scored nine times and added three assists in 23 appearances (21 starts) in the Premier League.

Impact Havertz was a solid contributor, leading the line for large parts of the campaign before an injury essentially ended his season. He was able to get back on the bench for the final two matches, but that was more of a moral victory than anything else. Havertz may see his role dwindle next season, with Arsenal widely expected to sign a striker in the transfer window.

Impact Havertz is seeing some progress Wednesday, with the attacker seeing his first steps back on the training field since his injury. This is good news, although he will still need to do some more work before a return is thought about. With the season ending in 11 days, he will have to make a quick turnaround to play again this season, which seems unlikely.

Impact Havertz was originally reported to be done for the season, but it appears he's a bit ahead of schedule. A return in any capacity before the end of the campaign would be an excellent sign for Havertz. Leandro Trossard and Mikel Merino have led the line with Havertz injured.

Impact Havertz was originally expected to be out for the remainder of the season when he went under the knife for a hamstring surgery. In the end it seems he has a chance to be back before the end of the campaign. Mikel Merino has filled in at striker with Havertz sidelined, and will likely finish the season at the top of the formation even if Havertz can return for the final few matches.

Undergoes successful surgery Havertz underwent successful surgery on his hamstring and will begin rehab in the coming months.

Impact Havertz will miss the rest of the season and the hope is that he can get back on the pitch sometime over the summer. Hamstring surgeries are tricky to return from because you're never completely out of the woods. Fortunately, he'll have most of the summer to get back his form and fitness. Unfortunately for Arsenal, they're missing a lot of bodies in their attack the rest of the way.
