Arsenal expect Martin Odegaard to miss another six weeks with the knee injury he sustained before the international break.

The Arsenal captain went down clutching his left knee after clashing with Crysencio Summerville in the first half of a 2-0 victory against West Ham that sent Mikel Arteta’s side top of the table.
