Leandro Trossard was substituted in the first half of the Nations League game against Israel earlier this week and there has been no update from Arsenal .

However, Daily Mail claim that the club are optimistic he will be ready for the Forest game. He suffered a severe bruising, but could recover in time.

Trossard's form has been poor over the past few weeks, but Arsenal continue to consider him as a key part of their future plans under Mikel Arteta .

His influence has been limited from the starting XI lately and the return of Martin Odegaard could be a blessing in disguise for the ex- Brighton man.

Odegaard is expected to start ahead of Trossard after his injury break. The latter has been more effective when coming off the bench for Arsenal .

Arsenal will be aiming to end a four-match winless league streak when they host Forest on Saturday.

The London giants are currently nine points behind leaders Liverpool in the English top-flight.
