Arsenal are waiting to see if Kai Havertz is going to be on the sidelines for a period of time after the forward picked up a knee injury. The 26-year-old was not part of the open training session held at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday and the injury is being assessed by the medical department.

Explaining why Arsenal went ahead with Trossard's revamped contract, and the implications for the rest of their transfer business.

The Gunners are preparing for their second game of the Premier League season, and they got off to a perfect start in terms of coming home with three points. Arsenal travelled to Manchester United with a host of new signings involved, securing a 1-0 victory thanks to a Riccardo Calafiori header from a Declan Rice corner.

Arsenal had an open training session at the Emirates on Wednesday before their first home fixture of the Premier League season when they host Leeds United on Saturday. Ben White and Kai Havertz were glaring omissions. White came off in the 71st minute in the win at Manchester United on Sunday and Havertz started the game on the bench.
