The 23-year-old has 10 games across all competitions this season with two goals and an assist.
In the matchup with the Norwegian team, Nketiah got things started with a goal before Rob Holding and Fabio Vieira added insurance.
As Arteta told reporters, “He’s got this natural ability [to score]and he does it every time. Obviously, his work rate, attitude, and application are absolutely incredible.
The addition of him to the team makes me very happy. He possesses the skills to contribute to this club in any capacity, whether as a starter or finisher.

“You must consider what you have accomplished, which is excellent, but what can you do even better? We want to take him in this direction because that is how he thinks. He still has a lot of room to achieve that when you consider how much he has grown over the past year or two.
With six points after two games, Arsenal is in first place in Group A. Bodo/Glimt is in third place but has played one more game.
