BUKAYO SAKA MAKES A MASSIVE REVELATION ABOUT MARTIN ØDEGAARD AFTER SPORTING WINBukayo Saka has expressed his satisfaction with Martin Ødegaard’s return to the Arsenal squad and wishes that the captain remains healthy for the remainder of the season.
In September, while on international duty with Norway, Ødegaard, 25, was unable to play for nearly two months due to an ankle injury.
The Gunners were adversely affected by his absence; however, his return has coincided with a resurgence in form for Mikel Arteta’s team.
On Tuesday, Arsenal followed up their 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest in the Premier League with a 5-1 demolition of Sporting CP in the Champions League. Ødegaard was instrumental in both contests, re-establishing his on-field rapport with Saka, who also scored in each game.
“He [Ødegaard] is an extraordinary player, and the day he returned, I couldn’t help but smile,” Saka stated to TNT Sports.
“It is evident that we have a strong rapport and that I derive pleasure from engaging in play with him.” I am delighted that he has returned, and I am optimistic that he will remain in good health for the remainder of the season.

Arsenal’s decisive victory over Sporting was particularly noteworthy, as it was the first time since 2008 that they had scored five goals away from home in the Champions League.
Saka declared, “This is our home.” “We have demonstrated our ability to perform at a high level, and we must maintain this level of performance.”
“We were aware that Sporting had not lost in this location this season and that they are a top-tier team, but we have confidence in our abilities.”
We must simply be ourselves and proceed with assurance. Today, we executed that action. Everyone was at the top of their game; the [man-of-the-match] award could have been awarded to anyone.
Today, I am exceedingly proud of each and every one of the lads. Saka was instrumental in preventing a potential Sporting revival by converting a penalty to restore Arsenal’s three-goal lead at 4-1.
The winger maintained his composure in spite of the significant risks. He stated, “It was significant, but I did not experience the sensation of pressure.” “I was assured.”
Arsenal is in a position to maintain their impressive campaign in both domestic and European competitions, as Ødegaard is back in action and the team is performing at its highest level.
