LONDON (AP) — Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard could return for the Champions League match against Bayern Munich on Wednesday after nearly two months out.

The Norway midfielder has been sidelined since Oct. 4 with a knee injury but is pushing to make his comeback at the Emirates Stadium.

“He was very close for the previous game,” said Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, referring to the 4-1 win over Tottenham on Sunday, “so we are hopeful that tomorrow he can be in the squad.”
