LONDON's "Arsenal" will have to manage without their captain Martin Ødegaard for a while.

The Norwegian suffered an ankle injury during the UEFA Nations League match against Austria and will miss at least the next few matches for the "Gunners."

According to Norway national team doctor Ola Sand, such injuries typically take at least three weeks to heal.

"Injuries like this take a player out of action for at least three weeks. After that, it all depends on the healing process, but this period can be prolonged," O. Sand said in an interview with "VG Sporten."

"Arsenal" is set to face a North London derby against "Tottenham" next weekend.
