UCL: Arsenal Confirm Havertz, Ødegaard Return For Atlético Madrid Clash
Arsenal FC have received a major boost ahead of their upcoming clash with Atlético Madrid, with both Kai Havertz and Martin Ødegaard returning to availability.
As reported by Fabrizio Romano on Monday, Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta confirmed the update, saying: “Kai Havertz and Martin Ødegaard are both back available for our game against Atléti.”
The return of Ødegaard is particularly significant, with the Norwegian captain central to Arsenal’s midfield creativity and leadership.
Havertz, meanwhile, adds versatility in attack and has been an important tactical option for manager Mikel Arteta.
Their availability comes at a crucial stage of the season, with Arsenal looking to maintain momentum in both domestic and European competitions.
The club will continue to assess both players in training before confirming their final involvement, but early indications suggest they are in contention for selection against the Spanish side.
Arsenal face Atlético Madrid after securing a 1-1 draw in Spain. A win would secure Arsenal a place in the Champions League final for the first time since 2006.
