PSG has reportedly set their sights on signing Arsenal’s Martin Odegaard following the Norwegian’s impressive season at the Emirates.
Odegaard showcased remarkable form as the Gunners made a strong push against Manchester City in the Premier League title race.
Having proven himself worthy of being appointed the club’s captain, Arsenal will seek to build upon the success they achieved this season in the upcoming campaign.
However, their impressive season has attracted attention from other clubs, with Odegaard emerging as a target for several teams across Europe.
According to The Daily Mail, PSG views the former Real Madrid player as someone who can enhance their squad and may launch an offensive to secure his services.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Odegaard has been one of the finest midfielders in the Premier League since last season and we can understand why clubs want to add him to their squad.
However, he is happy at the club and we expect him to stay loyal to us for a few more campaigns. We also do not think Arsenal will entertain contacts from other clubs for his signature.

One of the untouchables for me, but if PSG really wanted him, asking price has to be around 150 million at the very least.
Bellingham is being quoted in same area, yet he’s doing it in a much weaker league, and we’ve seen many big money Bundesliga signings flop hard.
Only swap him for Mbappe, the rest are either too old or not good enough.
Load of Piffle _ Why would Odegaard or any decent player want to play in a very poor league as in France. Mbappe you need to come to the Premiership!!!
So Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, Silva etc etc aren’t decent players because they paly/played in France?
The answer is money.
@fi why would Mbappe want to play in Scotland rather than the Premier League in England?😊
People who know the history of the Arsenal have seen this all before. Bertie Mee’s 1970/71 double winning team was broken up with top players sold off by the Club. Thankfully Arsenal retained many of its young stars from George Graham’s winning teams to form the basis of the early Arsene Wenger sides.
Unfortunately Arsene Wenger’s “Invincibles” were broken up too early with many players sold to strengthen Manchester City in their early “petrodollars” days. Wenger had to rebuild squads many times, because the Club continually sold its best players.
Surely after finishing second and returning to the Champions League, Arsenal will endeavour to keep players like Odegaard, Saka, Saliba, Martinelli, Smith-Rowe, Nelson and Tierney to build upon with intellegent transfer business and develop a squad to compete in Europe and domestically. It has been soul destroying for supporters to see players sold continually and achieve success with other clubs. Hopefully Arsenal, with proper financial support from Kroenke Sports & Entertainment, can retain players such as Martin Odegaard and bring in the required additions to the squad.
I agree Ozzie but i am also of the opinion, every player has a price and every player is replaceable. If you sell someone, you can replace with better or same.
About a 2% chance of this happening captain and playing his best football no reason whatsoever for him to want to leave not as confident about Saliba got a feeling will have to sell because of his contract situation also don’t think we will get Rice at the price stated no way Arsenal will pay that and as much as I would like him at Arsenal the price tag is far to excessive I put him around 70 mill but his price is inflated cos he’s English!
I’m surprised you say 2%. I say 0%. Just can’t see it.
What people need to remember is, today Odergaard is very saleable and would command a decent price. He has just come off a good season, he is under contract, not on silly money and he wants a payrise. This summer, we will either sell Odergaard for goid money or we will up his wages and renew his contract.
I think it will be the latter but nobody knows what money will or could be offered.
