Arsenal striker Kai Havertz has withdrawn from international duty with Germany after picking up a knee injury.
The 25-year-old has been a revelation for the Gunners this year and he recently scored for the seventh game in a row at the Emirates Stadium.
The German has become one of the club’s most influential players after Bukayo Saka and it remains to be seen whether his issue is serious.
Havertz has had a heavy workload for club and country this campaign and Arsenal could be cautious with him after what happened to Martin Odegaard.
Odegaard went into the last international break with a couple of knocks and he ended up picking a serious ankle injury on Nations League duty with Norway.
Arsenal have had a fine start to the Premier League campaign and they have accumulated 17 points from their opening seven games into the season.
The club are just one point behind leaders Liverpool. They are scheduled to host the Reds at the Emirates Stadium before the end of the month.
