Edu's £35m Arsenal gamble proves a bargain amid Kevin De Bruyne and Bruno Fernandes comparison

Martin Odegaard has been exceptional for Arsenal this season after signing in the summer. His excellent performances have been proven by his impressive chance creation statistics.

The Norwegian ranked fourth in the Premier League for the most chances created this season, which is a testament to his importance in Mikel Arteta’s team. Only Trent Alexander-Arnold, Bruno Fernandes, and Kevin De Bruyne created more opportunities for their teammates across the campaign.

It is even more impressive when you consider the fact that Arsenal had only scored 61 goals during the season, with Arteta not always opting for the most free-flowing attacking system. But still, Odegaard managed to create enough chances which ranks him amongst the best in the Premier League.
