Martin Ødegaard to join Norway
The Arsenal caprain was expected to miss out of action this month as he had just recently recovered from a long-term injury but Solbakken has now confirmed Ødegaard will join the squad.
Ødegaard, who provided the assist for Gabriel Martinelli’s opener in the London derby draw, will leave the club today and head to camp to join the likes of Erling Haaland.
Although it is yet to be confirmed if the midfielder will play any part. It is obvious the decison will not be taken well by Arsenal, who has endured an injury hit campaign so far and may potentially lose both Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice to injuries.
