Arsenal will be happy to have him back as his presence was missed in Arsenal's previous games, including their defeats against Bournemouth and Newcastle United.

Arsenal, who now sit in 5th position in the Premier League table, have won 50% of their games without Odegaard compared to 77% of their games when he was on the pitch, showing a great need for the midfielder.

With a Champions League game against Inter Milan on Wednesday, it is yet to be confirmed if Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta will play Odegaard or if the player would be available for the next Premier League game.

The player could also be allowed time to recover fully and could make an appearance after the international break towards the end of the month.
