Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard suffers fresh injury setback

Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has suffered a fresh setback in his recovery from an ankle injury.

The Norwegian has been out of action since the last international break and his comeback date is set to be delayed.

Odegaard was initially tipped to return to training in early November, but he is now sidelined until December at least.

Con Harrison provided the update on his X account today and we should see a clear update from the Gunners very soon.

The news is a huge blow for the Gunners, considering Bukayo Saka may have picked up a hamstring injury last night.

The Englishman was spotted clutching onto his right hamstring and this could be another setback for the London side.

Arsenal face Bournemouth on the road after the internationals before a crucial league game against Liverpool at home.

The absence of both Odegaard and Saka could have huge repercussions on the outcome of the Premier League encounter.
