Martin Odegaard admits his attempts to persuade Erling Haaland to join him at Arsenal were unsuccessful.
The Norwegian playmaker has spent the last 18 months at the Emirates, signing permanently last summer from Real Madrid. He's now been made club captain as the Gunners attempt to break back into the top four. They were on the look out for a No 9 this summer and eventually signed Gabriel Jesus.
Haaland though was on the market - but opted for a switch to Manchester City. Odegaard and Haaland team up at international level and there was often talk of the former trying to lure his compatriot to north London, albeit he wasn't able to do so.
