“No surgery (this time), it’s not as bad as it was before,” Arteta said, adding that it’s not the same legs. “He’ll be out for a few weeks.”<\/p>\n

“I think it’s going to be a few weeks, but I don’t know how many months it will be,” Arteta said of the forward’s return timeline. “He went very well to recover from what he was before. …We lost another big player for weeks, but (surgery) was the right thing to do.”<\/p>\n
Havertz missed several months last season with a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n
