Mikel Arteta gives major Kai Havertz update after he tore hamstring during Dubai training camp in February

Mikel Arteta is aiming for the injured Kai Havertz to play before the season ends in a major boost for Arsenal.

Havertz suffered a hamstring tear during the Gunners’s warm weather training camp in February which required surgery.

It has resulted in the north London club playing Mikel Merino as a makeshift No9.

In an update to fans, the German posted a video on Thursday of himself undergoing rehabilitation work in the gym.

Bukayo Saka had only returned to action last week against Fulham after also undergoing surgery on his hamstring.
