ARSENAL’S ODEGAARD BACK IN TRAINING AFTER INJURY LAYOFF
Arsenal supporters received a significant boost on Tuesday as Martin Odegaard was spotted participating in full training at the Sobha Realty Training Centre.
According to the Arsenal website, “There was a welcome sight at the Sobha Realty Training Centre today as Martin Odegaard returned to full training with the rest of his teammates.”
This was detailed in a release titled “Gallery: Martin Odegaard Returns to Full Training.”
Odegaard had been sidelined for the past two months due to an ankle injury sustained during international duty for Norway in September, causing him to miss 12 consecutive matches. His return comes at a crucial time, with the Gunners set to face Inter Milan in a Champions League showdown.
The Arsenal website noted, “We head to Italy later on Tuesday afternoon aiming to maintain our unbeaten start in this season’s competition, but all Gunners supporters will be thrilled to see Martin taking the latest step towards a first-team return.” The captain’s comeback could provide a morale boost as Arsenal aims to continue their impressive European campaign.
In September, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta declined to rule out captain Odegaard for the North London derby against Tottenham, despite concerns that the key midfielder could be sidelined for weeks.
Odegaard suffered an ankle sprain on international duty with Norway earlier this season.
