The newspaper asked Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta on Sunday evening whether Ødegaard should be involved in the upcoming national team meeting. – I will talk to him (Martin Ødegaard) about it, Arteta told VG. – But what do you prefer? That he stays in London to get properly match-ready, or that he goes to the national team? asks VG. – I will talk to him and then I can tell you what I prefer, said Arteta. Ødegaard: – A discussion Ødegaard, who played 90 minutes against Chelsea, was himself waiting when he met the English press after the match. – I don’t know, I’ll be honest. It is a discussion we will have now, said Ødegaard to Sky Sports after the match. Drammenseren played his first game from the start since 9 September on Sunday. – I did not expect this. I’ve only trained a few times with the rest of the team – maybe only three times. It has been a big change. I wouldn’t have believed this a few days ago, Ødegaard further told Sky Sports.

When asked if this means that Ødegaard is healthy, national team doctor Ola Sand replies the following via SMS: “Looks like that ;)” The Arsenal star was not selected for Norway’s national team last week, but Solbakken did not rule out that he could be brought in. After coming on in extra time against Inter in the Champions League last Wednesday, Ødegaard was back for Arsenal for 90 minutes on Sunday. That after two months out with injury. Norway’s captain suffered a knee injury in an international match against Austria in September. Published 11.11.2024, at 09.35 Updated 11.11.2024, at 09.47
