Martin Odegaard could be the next Arsenal captain.

The Arsenal manager has been immensely impressed with the Norwegian captain who is easily one of the best players in the current Arsenal squad.

He has scored eight goals and made seven big chances in 50 Premier League appearances for the Gunners.

He is already the captain of his national side and is in line to become the next Arsenal captain.

The attacking midfielder is a very mature player who has been a key figure in the squad for the past two seasons.

Mikel Arteta has been hugely impressed with the attitude of the former Real Madrid man.

He said to The Athletic: “One of them is that he thinks about the team before himself.

“He had a period at the start where he wasn’t playing, he was the first in training, the last to leave, asking the right questions – why he wasn’t playing, what he had to do – he was always listening, he was always helping his teammates.

“His attitude was absolutely phenomenal. That made me think that this guy is putting the team in front of himself and the captain has to do that always.”
