Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard is out of Norway's squad for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers after injuring his left knee against West Ham United. The midfielder was forced to leave the pitch before half-time for the third consecutive Premier League game, becoming the first player in the league's history to do so. Declan Rice was also substituted in the 79th minute with a back issue.

A medical update from the club read: "Martin Odegaard has been withdrawn from the Norway national team for their upcoming matches against Israel and New Zealand after sustaining a medial collateral ligament injury to his left knee during the first half in Saturday’s win over West Ham United.

"Martin will continue to be assessed and treated by our medical team at Sobha Realty Training Centre during the international window, with the aim of a return to action as soon as possible."
