Arsenal have plans in mind regarding Martin Odegaard’s return date

According to journalist Ben Jacobs, the Gunners are hoping that the Arsenal captain can play some part for them in their big Premier League clash against Liverpool on October 27th.

The midfielder suffered a long term injury on international duty and since then, he has been unable to play for the Premier League club.

The club have no plans to rush the midfielder back as without him, they have performed considerably well and remained unbeaten in all competitions this season.

The Gunners hope to have the midfielder back after the international break this month.

Jacobs, while speaking to GiveMeSport, reported that the Gunners feel that the Arsenal star is still weeks away from returning.

“Martin Odegaard remains weeks away from being physically fit. And then, of course, you’ve got to get him match fit in addition to that.

“So I’m told at this stage that there’s no rush to get Odegaard back, despite his clear importance to Arsenal, but they want him involved and fit and influencing the Liverpool game in the Premier League, as opposed to Shakhtar in the Champions League, and that comes at the end of October.
