Forward hobbled off after scoring against Leeds
Ødegaard also expected to be back before long
Arsenal have received a boost after it emerged that Bukayo Saka’s hamstring injury is not as significant as first feared.
Saka was withdrawn in the second half of Arsenal’s 5-0 Premier League victory against Leeds at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
The England international missed three and a half months of last season following surgery on his right hamstring and the concern was that he could face a similar layoff after he hobbled off with a left hamstring issue. While it remains unclear when Saka will return to the fold, the early indications are thought to be positive for the 23-year-old – and it is understood that it is not anticipated he will be sidelined for a similar timeframe as last season.
