Martin Odegaard returns to Arsenal training with a major injury boost ahead of the Inter Milan trip.

The captain has not featured for Arsenal since August.

Arsenal received a big boost when Martin Odegaard exercised ahead of crucial games against Inter Milan and Chelsea, although midfield partner Declan Rice was absent.

Odegaard has been out for more than two months after suffering an ankle injury while playing for Norway at the beginning of September.

However, the club captain is nearing a return and practiced with the Arsenal squad on Tuesday morning ahead of their Champions League match against Inter on Wednesday.

However, he was left out of Norway's team for a Nations League double-header against Slovenia and Kazakhstan in November.

Martin Odegaard trained at London Colney on Tuesday.

Odegaard has been fighting to be available for the Inter game and is eager to make his return.

The 25-year-old has been exercising on grass for a few weeks, but Arsenal will be wary of rushing him back after such an extended absence.

Odegaard injured his ankle ligaments while playing for Norway and has not seen for Arsenal since their 1-1 draw against Brighton on August 31.

He has missed 12 Arsenal games, and his return to fitness will be a huge boost for the Gunners, who need their captain to help reignite their season after three Premier League games without a win disrupted their title hopes.

Arsenal have missed his inventiveness and leadership, and he also runs their press.

Mikel Arteta's team is in a solid position in the Champions League, with seven points from their first three games, but the trip to Inter is their most difficult test in the league stage.

Thierry Henry was denied a joyful homecoming as France was defeated by gold medal winners Spain.

Exactly 36 years after Vinnie Jones, Dave Beasant, Lawrie Sanchez, and others ripped up the rulebook to propel Bobby Gould's Wimbledon to a storied FA Cup victory, Thierry Henry's France fell agonisingly short of capturing an emotional Olympic gold medal in front of a sold-out Parc des Princes in Paris. Henry, who gave his young French team the nickname the 'Crazy Ones' due to their fun-loving nature, won nearly everything as a player, and despite the stars appearing to align for a historic gold medal on home turf, the Arsenal legend was overshadowed by Santi Denia's slick Spaniards in a dramatic 5-3 extra-time defeat. Sergio Camello of Rayo Vallecano was their unexpected late nemesis, dunking French goalkeeper Guillaume Restes with 100 minutes on the clock to startle a stunned capacity crowd. And he delivered a virtual carbon copy of that finish with the game's final kick, charging in on goal as the French flung bodies forward to slot past Restes and cruelly
