Martin Odegaard has been superb since he made a permanent move to Arsenal from Real Madrid and the Norwegian captains the Gunners now.
This is his second full season at the Emirates, but he has become one of the key men for Arsenal as Mikel Arteta seeks to improve the club’s recent performances.
They are at the top of the league table and he has been a tremendous contributor to their performances, with the club often relying on his creativity to unlock stubborn defences.
As he does well, clubs around Europe are monitoring him and will want to steal him from the Gunners.
However, he could also return to Real Madrid as a new report reveals he has a buy-back clause in his current deal.
The journalist Ramón Álvarez de Mon, speaks about it on YouTube, he said:
“There is a kind of right of first refusal for Real Madrid that we will see if at some point it makes sense for them to exercise it.
“Ødegaard has just turned 24 and is still at a good age. We’ll see, but with Bellingham there would be a more powerful project.
“His (Ødegaard’s) talent is special and he spent very little time here.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Odegaard has been an amazing player and Madrid knew he could be an important man for us, which is why they will have added the clause.
However, we do not need to panic and the Norwegian is one player who will be loyal to us, at least for now.
He appreciates what we have given him and should want to keep playing at the Emirates.

The clause means absolutely nothing. It’s only active if ever we decide to sell, and apparently, we’re not and will not be for the foreseeable long term future. Once Martinelli, Saka and Saliba sign new contracts, Ødegaard’s contract renewal should follow immediately
Right of FIRST REFUSAL Read Martin, read! This is a lil bit embarrassing i must say.
It’s much to do about nothing, Real Madrid is a grave yard for talent, isn’t that cemetary filled by now.
Aboutsley bullshit he’s not leaving,
Rip Pele, I was lucky to see 3 great men in my life time it was best, marondona, and Pele rip legends.
Right of first refusal.
So we have to want to sell him then.
Luckily, we don’t have a history of selling our captains below market value.
rubbish article and but yeah they can buy him back 300 million pounds
he is a gooner now , captured
Strange how George Best is always forgotten when one talks about legends.
RIP Pele, one of the greatest.
Ken, I saw a video the other week about Pele. It highlighted his skills and showed all the skills that latter day players get praised for were first performed by Pele. Even the famous Cruyff turn in the ’74 World Cup was first done by Pele.
RIP Pele.
Best , Cruyff, Bergkamp , Zidane , Puskas , too many to mention.
Oh and Messi and Ronaldo x 2 fat and thin.
What an unnecessary scare story, which has no validity whatsoever and had no need to be reported , since it is irrelevant and obviously so! Sigh!
