Arsenal have lacked a player in the offensive midfield this season with the necessary creativity to orchestrate the offensive game. In this connection, the London club has been linked to Christian Eriksen, who is looking for a way out of his Italian nightmare at Inter.

A number of media at least believe to know that Martin Ødegaard is moving to Arsenal, as "The Gunners" are on the verge of reaching an agreement with Real Madrid on a lease until the summer but without a purchase option.

Throughout last season, 22-year-old Ødegaard was loaned out to Real Sociedad, where he played 36 matches with seven goals as a result.
