Arsenal boss Arteta says Odegaard and Smith Rowe can play in same team

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta says Martin Odegaard and Emile Smith Rowe can play in the same team.

Ahead of their Europa League clash with Olympiacos, Arteta was asking about the midfield pair.

He said, "The plan was to have more options and to start to create relationships with players that, in our opinion, could play together.

"We work together as a club to try to identify those talents, good players and intelligent players that can always play together.

"We have to find the right structure for them to maximise their potential and this is what we are trying to do and we will try to do that even more with some of the players that we have with the same qualities."
