Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has resumed training, providing a significant lift to the team after a lengthy absence due to injury
Odegaard suffered the injury while playing for Norway during the September international break, and his return comes at a crucial time.
The Gunners have struggled in his absence, failing to secure a win in their last three league matches, including a 1-0 loss to Newcastle on Saturday. This setback dropped them seven points behind league leaders Liverpool.
Martin Odegaard rejoined the first-team squad on Tuesday, and manager Mikel Arteta is expected to provide an update on his skipper’s availability at his press conference later today. Declan Rice was not involved at the start of Tuesday’s session, but his condition is not considered a major concern.
Riccardo Calafiori, Takehiro Tomiyasu, and Kieran Tierney are expected to return after the November international break. Odegaard’s comeback offers much-needed optimism for Arsenal, particularly amidst uncertainty off the pitch following sporting director Edu’s resignation.
The Brazilian’s departure after five years at the Emirates has sparked speculation about the club’s future direction. On the pitch, Odegaard’s creative influence is highly valued, and his return could revitalize Arsenal’s fortunes. With a crucial match against Inter Milan looming, Odegaard’s potential involvement could provide the catalyst for a turnaround.
