Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard believes he has finally found his home at the Emirates - but admitted he could have arrived much earlier in his career.
The Norwegian signed for the Gunners on loan in January 2021 and he went on to make the move permanent in the following summer window. Odegaard, 24, quickly established himself as an integral part of the squad under Mikel Arteta and, 12 months later, was made the club’s skipper.
He is now at the heart of an Arsenal side that have their eyes on a first Premier League title in almost 20 years. On an individual basis, he has also emerged as one of the best midfield players not only in England, but in Europe, finally delivering on the hype which surrounded him as a teenager.
