...Dan 758 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I'd be very happy with this. He was brilliant at Real Sociedad, hopefully he can hit those levels again and we can make the move permanent at the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redcanuck 175 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 It will be interesting to see him play , loads of potential, could be a great deal for Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Profesor 1,457 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 IMO Real is using this loan to Arsenal as a plataform to showcase Odegaard for future suitors. I don´t think his future will be at Madrid. Having said that, I really hope he succeeds in England. Amazing talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnivore Chris 2,606 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 He'd have been much much better off at Real Sociedad where he was developing very well and one of the first names on their teamsheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaaay AFC 357 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Pretty happy with this gives us at least another option to ESR. Hopefully there will be potential for a permanent move if he does well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panna King 1,012 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Seems a good deal on paper but reality he has hardly played, 6 months is not long enough it will be another Denis Suarez situation and the time he is ready for the team his loan will be up.

He should never of went to Madrid in the first place, his career has been wasted in the last 4 years, if he had just signed for someone like Ajax he wouldn't be in this situation now.

Administrator Stan 18,367 Posted June 1, 2021 Administrator Share Posted June 1, 2021 60m Euros is the asking price Real Madrid have set for him... https://www.defensacentral.com/real_madrid/1622301255-el-real-madrid-no-aceptara-menos-de-60-millones-de-euros-por-el-traspaso-de-odegaard (translated) Quote The possibility that Martin Odegaard ceases to be a Real Madrid player this summer is not far-fetched. Arsenal want to keep the Norwegian, who has played on loan in London since January, and the white club is willing to listen to offers for him. Real Madrid knows that Odegaard is going to be a great footballer, but the current economic circumstances added to the attitude shown by the player in January, which displeased not only Zidane but the entire management leadership , may lead to a transfer that no one would have imagined a year ago. Martin Odegaard returned from his assignment to Real Sociedad early and Real Madrid hoped to see a version of the Norwegian like Anoeta's, that Zidane would give him the ball and we would be in front of a reference player in the new Madrid. None of that happened and Odegaard ended up at the Emirates Stadium. Now, an offer of 60 million euros can make Real Madrid sign their final exit . The club does not rule out hearing offers for any of its players. Virtually no one is non-transferable at Real Madrid and Odegaard is one of the players whose future is most up in the air, even despite Zidane's departure from the white club . The Norwegian's situation is delicate. If Arsenal or any other club wants him, he will have to pay a good sum of money, that's for sure. Real Madrid has set a minimum price of € 60 million, including goal bonuses . The fixed figure would be at least 50 million euros. Odegaard has a market value of 40 million euros according to Transfermarkt, but it is not crazy to think that Arsenal can pay that amount for the Norwegian, who has curdled a good second half of the season with the Gunners .

6666 1,310 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I know Real Madrid are desperate for money but do they really think they're gonna get €60m here? It'll be interesting to see how their summer goes. Wanting to sell Odegaard, Bale, Ceballos, Hazard, Brahim Diaz, and Mariano, while trying to replace Ramos.

Chaaay AFC 357 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 €35m rising to €40m in the end. For that price you can't really complain. I just worry him, ESR and Saka as a part of your front 4 just doesn't bring enough goal contributions, especially goals. Hoping they can improve that a lot this season.

The Palace Fan 3,400 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I really rate Odegaard and think he will come in to his own as a football over the next couple of seasons. Again though, like a lot of Arsenal's business this summer, it's a big outlay for a position that doesn't appear a necessity. In January it felt like they absolutely needed a number ten because we didnt realise how developed Emile Smith-Rowe was. The argument for two players in every position could have been counter reacted by Willock playing an advanced role in a midfield three. It's not as bad as the outlay on Ramsdale but it appears after the Super League debacle the owner has promised a cash injection that the scouting department wasn't prepared for. "All the gear and no idea" seems the phase for Arsenal since Wenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
