Kai Havertz will not face his former side Chelsea when Arsenal take on their London rivals in Premier League action in March.

While the severity of Havertz’s injury is not yet known, his absence would leave Arsenal without a recognised striker and with just three fit forwards in Ethan Nwaneri, Leandro Trossard and Raheem Sterling. As Arteta looks for a solution before Saturday’s clash with Leicester City, here are three ways he could replace Arsenal’s latest injured duo.

The German forward’s injury leaves Arsenal without a recognised striker in their ranks for the next month at least, with fellow No9 Gabriel Jesus also unable to play again this season and Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka’s injuries further depleting their forward line.
