Arsenal are reportedly hoping to agree on a new deal with star midfielder Martin Odegaard as they look to advance talks.
Martin Odegaard has been outstanding since his move to North London, and he was one of Arsenal’s best players last season. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Gunners have now intensified efforts to renew his contract.
Odegaard has been a reliable performer for the North London club, and he is their club captain as well. The Norwegian international scored 15 goals in the Premier League last season while picking up eight assists along the way.
He will look to improve on his outstanding performances from last season, and it remains to be seen whether he can guide Arsenal to the league title this time around. Odegaard was one of the main driving forces behind Arsenal’s title push last season.
The 24-year-old performed at a high level on a consistent basis. It is no surprise that Arsenal are hoping to tie him down to a new long-term deal. Odegaard has the attributes to develop into a world-class playmaker, and Arsenal should look to hold on to him for as long as possible.

Arsenal have shown tremendous improvement under Mikel Arteta, and they are back in the UEFA Champions League. They have been quite ambitious in the transfer market so far and will look to push for the league title and European trophies in the coming seasons.
It is fair to assume that Odegaard will continue at the North London club, and he will look to win major trophies with them in the coming seasons. There is no reason why he would not renew his contract with Arsenal right now. The Gunners have an exciting project, and they have an extremely talented young squad.
Meanwhile, Odegaard will look to continue his improvement this season as well. The Norwegian is yet to enter his peak years and is likely to get better with coaching and experience. Arsenal need to hold on to their best players if they want to win major trophies in the coming seasons. So the decision to renew Odegaard’s deal will come as a major boost to the fans and the players.
