Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta issued an injury update on club captain Martin Ødegaard ahead of the Gunners' Champions League tie against Atalanta. Arsenal's captain was substituted off for Norway over the international break and looked to be in severe pain.

Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard will be out "for a while" after suffering a significant ankle injury while playing for Norway last week, manager Mikel Arteta said on Wednesday.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says captain Martin Odegaard has suffered a "quite significant" ankle ligament injury and hopes the midfielder will be out for weeks rather than months.
