Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard appears unlikely to be match to face Tottenham, following an replace on his restoration from Norway coach Stale Solbakken.
Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard is “a long way away” from returning to motion, in response to Norway coach Stale Solbakken.
Odegaard has not performed since struggling knee ligament injury in Arsenal’s win over West Ham on October 4.
It’s hoped he’ll be capable of return for the North London derby on November 23, however Solbakken’s phrases on Odegaard’s restoration have forged doubt on that risk.
Arsenal skipper making regular progress
Odegaard has joined up with Norway in a non-playing capability as they search to clinch a spot within the World Cup finals for the primary time since 1998.
“It’s regular,” Solbakken stated when requested about Odegaard’s restoration. “It’s moving into a gentle path however he is a long way away.”
Odegaard will proceed his rehabilitation with Norway, who will qualify for the World Cup in the event that they beat Estonia on Thursday, earlier than they journey to face Italy of their ultimate qualifier on Sunday.
“He’ll fly in [to Oslo] after his rehab on Thursday,” Solbakken added. “Then he’ll proceed his rehab with us and will probably be with us from Thursday afternoon. I don’t know when the flight leaves. However he will probably be with us till Milan.”
