Martin Odegaard in contract talks with Arsenal

It would be great news if the Gunners were able to keep Odegaard at the club even longer than his current contract ties him down to.

The Norwegian is the club captain and his experience and quality has been pivotal in helping Arsenal become a top club again.

Not only that, but the attacking midfielder’s eye for goal and ability to finish makes him one of the best in his position in the league.

The contract talks really emphasise where Arsenal is at right now at the Emirates is currently in a great position. Momentum is high and their top players are keen to stay at the club.

This, combined with the top signings they made in the summer make them a high-level team. Now, manager Mikel Arteta needs to make sure he keeps the club at a high level and aim to win a trophy or the Premier League title.

It will be very interesting to see how the Gunners play throughout the season. Being good on the pitch this season is essential to make sure that last campaign wasn’t a blip.
