Arsenal fans may seem some sense of justice after an incident during the international break.

Austria and RB Leipzig star Christoph Baumgartner has issued a public apology to Martin Odegaard.

The Norway and Arsenal captain Odegaard was forced off injured on international duty due to a tackle from Baumgartner.

He may now miss more than a month of action, including this weekend’s North London Derby.

“Hi guys! I would like to sincerely apologize to Martin Odegaard,” he wrote on his Instagram story. 

“It was never my intention to injure this fantastic player. I wish him all the best and a speedy recovery! Come back stronger.”
