Martin Odegaard on fire for Arsenal
To be frank, it was long overdue for the dedicated Arsenal supporters to have a top-tier chant for their Norwegian midfield maestro.
Martin Odegaard has consistently excelled since making his permanent move to the club from Real Madrid in August 2021. In fact, he stood out as one of their standout performers last season, nearly propelling the team to their first Premier League title since 2004!
Once again, Odegaard displayed his exceptional skills in the recent match against Everton on Sunday afternoon, playing a key role in his team’s 1-0 victory, courtesy of Leandro Trossard’s second-half goal.
Although Odegaard’s pass wasn’t officially counted as an assist for the goal, it was his delicate delivery to Bukayo Saka that set the stage for the Belgian to expertly guide the ball into the far corner, eluding a helpless Jordan Pickford. While it may not have been recorded as an assist, Odegaard’s influence in the build-up was undeniable, a role he frequently plays in Mikel Arteta’s squad.
This season, Odegaard has already netted two goals in the five matches played – one from the penalty spot against Crystal Palace, securing the only goal of the game, and another against Manchester United, equalizing in their 3-1 victory at the Emirates Stadium just before the international break.
Odegaard’s pivotal role in Arsenal’s playing style has sparked rumors that the club is eager to secure him with a new, extended contract.
While it’s widely known that the Norwegian international is content with his life in North London and has no intentions of departing, the club wishes to acknowledge his outstanding performances by proposing a lengthier and more financially rewarding contract as a token of appreciation.

The forthcoming contract extension is anticipated to be finalized and officially announced in the coming months. The club is absolutely certain that it will be successfully concluded, and it’s merely a matter of time before it becomes official.
Odegaard is poised to follow in the footsteps of other players who recently committed to long-term agreements with the club, including Saka, William Saliba, and Aaron Ramsdale, all of whom signed extensions over the summer.
