Arsenal skipper Martin Odegaard was injured playing for Norway on Monday evening
Arsenal fans have been on tenterhooks since seeing their skipper Martin Odegaard go down injured while playing for Norway on Monday night.
The Gunners are set for a key phase of the early part of the 2024/25 season, with Mikel Arteta preparing for Sunday’s north London derby, which is followed up by a Thursday night Champions League trip to Atalanta before his side travel to the Etihad to face champions Manchester City on the Sunday.
Odegaard limped off during the second half of Norway’s 2-1 win over Austria in the Nations League with an apparent ankle injury and was later spotted boarding a plane back to London on crutches.
“Such ankle injuries often take at least three weeks,” Sand told Norwegian publication VG. “Anything other than that is just a bonus. And then it can take longer.
“Ankle injuries are very painful right away. With Martin, it was extremely painful. He became very worried.
