Arsenal will breathe a huge sigh of relief regarding the fitness of Martin Odegaard over the next few weeks following injury analyst Ben Dinnery's verdict on the playmaker's fitness.
Odegaard has played a starring role for the Gunners this season to help guide Mikel Arteta's side to the top of the Premier League table with a number of Man of the Match performances. The 23-year-old has netted six league goals and provided another two assists in 13 games this season after slotting alongside Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus in the north-Londoners attack.
However, unlike his attacking teammates, Odegaard is not currently participating in the Qatar World Cup this month after Norway failed to qualify from their group. The Gunners skipper did, however, join up with the national squad shortly after Arsenal's 2-0 win over Wolves in their final Premier League game for two friendly fixtures against the Republic of Ireland and Finland.
