Martin Odegaard tells friends his stance on potential Arsenal transfer
Martin Odegaard has reportedly opened up to his friends about a potential permanent transfer to Arsenal. According to football.london, the Norway international has been impressed by Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta since joining on loan from Real Madrid in January, and could now be keen to stay. However, the report adds that Odegaard won’t push to extend his stay at Arsenal, even if he is keen to do so after being won over by Arteta’s project at the Emirates Stadium. Odegaard has long looked an exciting young talent but has not had many first-team opportunities at Real Madrid down the years. The 22-year-old also caught the eye on loan at Real Sociedad last season, and it seems his time with Arsenal has also been good for him as he’s shown what he can do when given the chance. Arsenal would sur...
Arsenal handed big boost in re-signing Martin Odegaard next season
Arsenal have been handed a boost in re-signing Martin Odegaard with the Real Madrid loanee telling those close to him that would like to stay with the Gunners, Football.London reports. Odegaard had an impressive loan stint with Real Sociedad last term, registering nine goals and seven assists in all competitions. As a result, his two-year loan deal was cut short early by Los Blancos, but he hardly played for them earlier this season. The 22-year-old was restricted to only 367 minutes of first-team football under manager Zinedine Zidane before he made the short-term loan move to the Gunners during the winter transfer window. Odegaard has since featured for the Gunners on 12 occasions and he has already made key contributions with goals against Olympiacos and Tottenham Hotspur while leading ...
Arsenal could be handed big boost in re-signing Martin Odegaard if this happens
Arsenal have a good chance of re-signing Martin Odegaard next season, should Zinedine Zidane remain the manager of Real Madrid, Football Insider reports. The Norwegian had an impressive loan stint with Real Sociedad last term, registering seven goals and nine assists from 36 appearances in all competitions. He was reintegrated into the first-team plans at Los Blancos this season but played just 367 minutes before he was loaned out to the Gunners in January. Odegaard made a slow start to his Gunners career, but he stepped up before the international break with several standout displays. While he has netted just twice in his 12 appearances, he has been hugely influential in the build-up of several other goals for the north London side. It is now reported that the Gunners have a good chance o...
Arsenal receive positive Martin Odegaard update after ankle injury scare
Arsenal have been left breathing a huge sigh of relief after it was confirmed that the injury suffered by Martin Odegaard while on international duty is not serious. Gunners fans were left concerned on Wednesday night after the in-form Real Madrid loanee appeared to painfully roll his ankle before being substituted at half-time of Norway’s 3-0 World Cup qualifying win against Gibraltar. The absence of Odegaard for any extended period of time would have come as a sizable blow to Arsenal, with the 22-year-old having grown in influence since moving to north London in January and played a critical role in Sunday’s comeback draw against London rivals West Ham, afterwards attracting effusive praise from manager Mikel Arteta. But not only does it seem that Odegaard is now unlikely to miss key upc...
‘Stability and development’: Martin Odegaard reacts to being quizzed over his Arsenal future
Real Madrid playmaker Martin Odegaard has said that he has yet to decide whether he will extend his stay with Arsenal. The Norwegian joined the Gunners on loan in January, and he has since managed 12 appearances in all competitions. He has only scored twice, but has been influential in the build-up of several goals for the Gunners with the quality of his distribution. This has led to suggestions that the north London side may seek to keep him next season on either a temporary or permanent deal. In an interview with Norwegian outlet VG, Odegaard has now said that he hasn’t thought about his plans beyond the summer. He added that he wants ‘stability and development’ in his career, which may indicate his desire to stay with the Gunners. He told VG, as translated by Goal.com: “To be completely...

‘Impressed’, ‘Quality’: Some Arsenal fans react to 22-year-old’s display vs Aston Villa
Some Arsenal fans were impressed with the display of Martin Odegaard during the club’s 1-0 Premier League defeat to Aston Villa on Saturday. The Norwegian joined the Gunners on loan from Real Madrid last month and he has since made two appearances for the club off the bench. One of those came after the hour mark against the Villans where the 22-year-old had a 96 percent pass success rate and delivered some quality passes in the final third. He had one glorious chance to score the equaliser late in the game, but drove his effort over the bar as he was quickly closed down. However, he left a good impression on some of the club’s supporters and a few of them believe the attacker needs to start against Leeds United later this month. Twitter Reactions: If odegaard doesn’t start vs Leeds I have ...
