Arsenal playmaker Martin Odegaard was absent from Norway's latest training session following an ankle injury against Portugal last week.
The 27-year-old has been in brilliant form for club and country, but appears doubtful to face Wales in the upcoming Nations League clash.
He picked up a heavy knock to his ankle after a reckless challenge from Bernardo Silva and has yet to fully recover from it.
Odegaard was absent from Norway's team training today and appears to be in a race against time for Thursday's game in Wales.
The news should concern the Gunners too, given Odegaard has been the club's best player this season, with four goals in all competitions.
He has been a catalyst towards the club's bright start to the campaign, and the fans will hope he can recover in time for club duty.
Norway will be aiming to return to winning ways on Thursday night. They recently suffered a 2-1 defeat to Portugal on home turf.
