Martin Odegaard's form this season has been a key part of Arsenal's surge to the top of the Premier League table. The Norwegian has made the number 10 spot his own within Mikel Arteta's squad and has warranted the £35 million spent on him in 2021.
Odegaard, 22, was signed permanently from Real Madrid following a short loan spell at the back end of the 2020/21 season. He has since adapted to the English game, made himself undroppable and been made club captain by Arteta to become one of the Gunners’ best players.
This season, the midfielder has flourished into one of the most in-form players to help steer the Gunners to their best start to a season in Premier League history. He has scored six goals - one shy of last season’s total - in 13 league games with another two assists this campaign.
