ARSENAL have been dealt a major injury blow after Martin Odegaard was forced off injured against Nottingham Forest.
The Gunners playmaker was named in the starting XI for the clash at the Emirates.


However, Odegaard was involved in a heavy fall on his shoulder – the same one he bruised against Leeds last month – after jumping over a challenge between Jurrien Timber and Morgan Gibbs-White.
The 26-year-old fell hard on the turf in the eighth minute, and received treatment before carrying on.
But the Dane appeared tearful as he was forced to leave the pitch nine minutes later, with Ethan Nwaneri replacing him off the bench.
THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY..
