Despite the injury, Norway's decision to call up Odegaard as captain suggests that he may be available to play in their next match against Liverpool. This implies that Odegaard's injury is not severe enough to keep him out of the game.

Before their trip to Liverpool, Norway will play a friendly match against Finland on September 4 and a World Cup qualifier against Moldova on September 9.

Arsenal's manager, Mikel Arteta, expressed concern about Odegaard's injury after the match against Leeds United, stating that they would need to scan him to understand the extent of the injury.
