"However, the Gunners don't want to sell the Norway international and will instead prioritise tying him down to a new contract. Odegaard is a world class talent on his day, and it makes sense that he'd be of interest to someone like Barca, but Arsenal surely need to do all they can to keep him at the Emirates Stadium. Even if he's had some recent injury problems, a fully fit Odegaard is a key part of how this Arsenal side plays,"
"In recent months, we've seen the likes of Gabriel Magalhaes, William Saliba, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri all commit to the club, so it would make sense for Odegaard to follow suit. The 26-year-old surely has little reason to try to move on for a new challenge elsewhere, as this Arsenal team looks really close to finally going all the way in the Premier League title race,"
Barcelona are targeting Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard for a potential summer 2026 transfer, while Arsenal intend to keep him and prioritise offering a new contract. Odegaard remains a world-class talent whose full fitness is integral to Arsenal’s playing style, though he has had recent injury issues. Arsenal have recently secured long-term commitments from Gabriel Magalhaes, William Saliba, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri, strengthening the club’s project. Odegaard is 26 and has previous Spanish experience with Real Madrid and a loan at Real Sociedad. Arsenal appear positioned to compete for the Premier League title and a Champions League challenge.
