Mikel Arteta has hinted that Martin Odegaard could be Arsenal's next captain as the Norwegian wore the armband against Southampton.
Alexandre Lacazette replaced Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as skipper on a temporary basis after the Gabon striker was stripped of the captaincy before leaving for Barcelona in January. It is unlikely he will take the role on a permanent basis with the Frenchman set to leave as a free agent in the summer.
Kieran Tierney appeared to be in pole position as he wore the armband on several occasions when Lacazette has been substituted. But with both players missing from Arsenal's trip to St. Mary's, Odegaard was given the honour, unfortunately resulting in a 1-0 defeat.
