Mikel Arteta expresses optimism about Kai Havertz’s return this season, while confirming that Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka are in full fitness.

Mikel Arteta addressed the media ahead of Arsenal’s Premier League match against Brentford, providing updates on player fitness.

When asked about Kai Havertz, Arteta confirmed journalist David Ornstein’s optimistic report, stating that the forward could return in the coming weeks.

“Hopefully, we can have him back before the end of the season,” Arteta said regarding the German international.

Following the Real Madrid game, Arsenal has no new injury concerns, despite Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka picking up minor knocks.
