Odegaard returns to Arsenal training and travels to Italy, Declan Rice not among the group

Martin Odegaard took part in the team training earlier today and is traveling with the Arsenal squad for their Champions League clash against Inter at the San Siro tomorrow. The Arsenal captain has been sidelined since his injury during Norway’s 9th of September match against Austria, which has caused him to miss 12 games for the Gunners. Though it remains uncertain if Odegaard will play tomorrow, his inclusion in the traveling squad signals a likely return for the upcoming London derby against Chelsea this weekend.

Meanwhile, Declan Rice is not making the trip to Milan, leaving a gap in Arsenal’s midfield as they aim to continue their unbeaten Champions League campaign. The Gunners have had a strong start, securing two wins and a draw from their first three matches. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is expected to address Rice’s absence in a press conference later today. Arsenal is coming off a narrow 2-1 defeat to Newcastle in the Premier League, and the team will be looking to regain momentum on the European stage.
