Mikel Arteta provides Kai Havertz and Eberechi Eze injury updates as Arsenal left worried

Mikel Arteta has issued an update on the fitness status of Kai Havertz and Eberechi Eze following Saturday night's clash with Newcastle United. The Gunners returned to the top of the Premier League table with a 1-0 victory over Newcastle, with Eze the difference between the two sides.

The Englishman netted a stunning goal in the first half of the match, but his evening was cut short when he hobbled off with an injury just after the restart. It was the second injury-enforced change for Arteta, given Havertz had also been forced off during the opening 45 minutes.

Speaking to Sky Sports, the Arsenal manager said: "Let's see at the moment they have to be looked after, but hopefully they will be okay."
