Arsenal are one step closer to renewing the contract with captain Martin Odegaard.
Fabrizio Romano, a transfer market reporter, said on the 15th (Korean time), “Arsenal received a positive response from Odegaard about extending his contract. As announced last week, negotiations are progressing. “It is believed to be only a matter of time before an agreement is reached on a new contract.”
먹튀검증Odegaard has been called Norway’s best talent since he was a teenager. He became a hot topic when he signed with Real Madrid, a world-famous club, in January 2015 when he was only 16 years old. Contrary to his expectations, Odegaard was pushed out of the competition for the starting role and wandered around on loan to SC Heerenveen and Real Sociedad.
In January 2021, Odegaard was loaned to EPL Arsenal. He spent half of the 2020/21 season at Arsenal, scoring 2 goals and 2 assists in 20 games. Arsenal signed Odegaard permanently in the summer after the season ended. Odegaard left Madrid and entered London.
This decision was a huge success. Odegaard has established himself as Arsenal’s ace. In the 2021/22 season, Odegaard recorded 7 goals and 5 assists in 40 games. Last season, his skills took another step forward. Appointed as Arsenal captain, he reached his full potential in the 2022/23 season with 15 goals and 8 assists in 45 games. In recognition of his performance, Odegaard was awarded the EPL Player of the Year award at the London Football Awards.
This season too, Odegaard is doing his part as captain with 2 goals in 5 games. Arsenal is cruising in the league with 3 wins and 1 draw (10 points) in 4 games. Arsenal decided to keep Odegaard to continue their upward trend. Odegaard’s contract with Arsenal runs until June 2025. According to Romano, Odegaard has always wanted to stay at Arsenal.
