BREAKING NEWS: Andrea Berta have already completed underground agreement as \u00a3120M duo set to arrive by January as perfect \u00d8degaard and Martinelli replacement after yesterday board meeting<\/p>\n

After last season\u2019s title challenge was derailed by injuries, Arsenal addressed this by recruiting heavily in the summer transfer window, and it\u2019s just as well.<\/p>\n

Piero Hincapi\u00e9, Kai Havertz, Noni Madueke and Gabriel Jesus all missed Saturday\u2019s win over West Ham, in which Martin \u00d8degaard suffered a medial collateral ligament injury to his left knee, which is set to see him sidelined for around a month.<\/p>\n

Odegaard-Arsenal
\nMeantime, William Saliba, Benjamin White, Bukayo Saka, Christian N\u00f8rgaard and others have already sat out matches due to more minor injuries this season, underlining the need for a gigantic squad.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, the fabled \u2018when everyone is fit\u2019 scenario could cause Mikel Arteta selection issues, forced to leave senior players out of a 20-man matchday squad entirely, so does one member of Arsenal\u2019s current starting lineup need to up his game to avoid being evicted from the XI?<\/p>\n

The latest on Arsenal\u2019s injury situation
\nThis has been a rough year for the Gunners on the injury front. Bukayo Saka spent the early months of the campaign out while Gabriel also suffered a major hamstring injury towards the end of 2024\/25.<\/p>\n

Odegaard has also endured a tough time, picking up yet another problem at the weekend.<\/p>\n

Safe to say his recent injury history is a cause for concern. At the weekend, he became the first player in history to be subbed in the first half of three consecutive Premier League matches<\/p>\n

Martin Odegaard injury history
\nHis best pal, Havertz, has also found life difficult this year.<\/p>\n

After being widely mocked and ridiculed following his \u00a365m move from Chelsea, the German flipped the script by scoring 14 goals during his first season in North London, before adding a further 15 last season.<\/p>\n

However, in 2025 so far, the Germany international has seen just 817 minutes of action across all competitions, sitting out 29 matches, and counting.<\/p>\n

First, Havertz underwent surgery in February after suffering a serious hamstring injury during the warm weather training camp in Dubai.<\/p>\n

Then, on the opening day of this season, during his 30-minute cameo, the forward sustained a knee injury at Old Trafford, one that required a minor surgical procedure.<\/p>\n

\nThis occurred on 17 August, with Havertz forecast to be sidelined for between two and three months, which could see him back in the coming weeks, likely to be in contention by the time Arsenal face Tottenham, Bayern Munich and then Chelsea in the space of eight days at the end of November.<\/p>\n

What Kai Havertz\u2019s return means for the Arsenal squad
\nIn the meantime, not ready to return just yet, one current starter will be under pressure to improve his performances as a result.<\/p>\n

Arsenal\u2019s Kai Havertz reacts
\nFootball supporters love nothing more than a debate, and just how well Viktor Gy\u00f6keres has done so far at Arsenal is the hot topic currently at the top of the agenda.<\/p>\n

So far, the Swedish striker has scored three goals in ten appearances, bagging a brace against Leeds, as well as netting against Nottingham Forest, both in home games.<\/p>\n

Well, ahead of his team\u2019s World Cup qualifiers against Switzerland and Kosovo, Sweden manager Jon Dahl Tomasson believes the striker is in \u201cvery good form at the moment\u201d, adding that those criticising him don\u2019t \u201cunderstand football\u201d.<\/p>\n

However, other opinions are widely available, with some asserting that he has so far struggled to make much of an impact, notably Gary Neville who said that he already looks like a bit of a \u201cmisfit\u201d surrounded by the more technically gifted players at Arsenal.<\/p>\n
