Mikel Arteta gives update on Martin Odegaard ahead of Leicester City

Martin Odegaard is currently sidelined after having injured his ankle while on international duty with Norway.

Odegaard has missed the Gunners’ last three matches.

Speaking on Odegaard, Arteta said: “Well if you put me in this scenario before the season with the fixutres that we had and the amount of injuries that we had I would be very pleased with how we got out of that. It’s not just with Martin, but with many others as well. The team has coped exceptionally well. They embraced the challenge and I’m happy for that.”
