Arteta 'not positive' after Odegaard sets unwanted injury record

Odegaard is the first Premier League player to be substituted before halftime in three consecutive starts due to recurring injuries, amid Arsenal topping the league.

  • On Oct 4, 2025, Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard was forced off within 30 minutes at the Emirates Stadium during the 2-0 win over West Ham United.
  • Limited starts this campaign show that Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard's season has been disrupted by shoulder issues, including incidents against Leeds and Nottingham Forest, restricting his appearances.
  • A knee-on-knee collision with Crysencio Summerville caused the knock, and after treatment Martin Odegaard tried to continue but was substituted for Martin Zubimendi shortly.
  • Club officials say two weeks' rest could allow Martin Odegaard to return for domestic action against Fulham on October 18, though he remains an early doubt for Norway national team; Piero Hincapie, Noni Madueke, Kai Havertz, and Gabriel Jesus remain sidelined.
  • Mikel Arteta, Arsenal manager, marked his 300th match as substitute players helped maintain standards in a 2-0 Premier League win despite fitness concerns for Martin Odegaard.
