Mikel Arteta provided an update on the fitness of Arsenal’s Kai Havertz and Raheem Sterling ahead of their Carabao Cup semi-final clash against Newcastle United on Tuesday.
Arteta shared positive news regarding their recovery but joked about avoiding any premature optimism.
When asked about Havertz’s availability, he said: “I hope so, but I don’t want to say yes because the last time I thought he’d be fit, he wasn’t.”
As for Sterling, Arteta indicated that his return might take slightly longer: “Hopefully very soon.”
