Martin Odegaard's future at Arsenal is uncertain, with the midfielder potentially leaving the club during the summer transfer window. The 27-year-old had a mediocre season, scoring just one goal in the Premier League and playing nearly 1400 minutes in the league. He also picked up seven assists, but his performances were not enough to guarantee a starting spot for the Premier League champions.
Odegaard's potential departure has been hinted at, with some suggesting that he could be shown the door in the summer. This comes after Arsenal signed Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace, who is expected to start as the attacking midfielder more often next season. Odegaard's link-up play with Saka was a key threat for Arsenal early in the season, but his injury and subsequent absence from the team disrupted this partnership.
It is likely that Odegaard will not want to sit on the bench at Arsenal, and a move away from the club could be beneficial for both parties. Odegaard has consistently shown his quality in the Premier League, and there will be no shortage of clubs looking to sign him if he is made available. Selling the 27-year-old midfielder could bring in funds for Arsenal to further improve their team, with a quality winger and striker being top priorities.
Arsenal's need for improvement in the final third is clear, and investing in a quality winger should be a key focus for the club. With Odegaard's potential departure, the club may be able to bring in the necessary funds to make these improvements. It remains to be seen whether they can find a suitable destination for Odegaard in the coming weeks, but a move away from Arsenal could be the best option for both the player and the club.
