Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard will not play for Norway in their upcoming Nations League matches against Slovenia and Kazakhstan.
The Gunners skipper was omitted from Stale Solbakken’s original squad for this week’s crucial fixtures as his side look to seal promotion from Group B3, but flew out to Oslo on Monday for assessment by Norway’s medical staff to determine if he was fit enough to be involved having made his long-awaited comeback from injury for Arsenal in last week’s Champions League defeat by Inter Milan.
