Martin Odegaard is showing his true form as Arsenal captain.

On the 9th (Korean time), through an interview with the global media ‘The Players Tribune’, Odegard confessed about his childhood growth, Real Madrid days, and why he decided to move to Arsenal.

Odegaard grew up listening to the sound of a genius midfielder since childhood. Even before he really stood out on the professional stage, he was in the spotlight all over the world. Real Madrid reached out to Odegaard’s talent, but ultimately he did not succeed at Real.

He was an Oedegaard who had grown up enough at Vitesse and Real Sociedad in the Dutch league, but had no place at Real. However, Odegaard was not at all dissatisfied with Real Madrid. “I watched, trained and learned from my idols, the best players in the world. I played at the Santiago Bernabéu. I was strong and learned to face challenges. That’s why I am where I am today,” he reflected on his Real Madrid days. 바카라

Odegaard decided to move midway through the 2020-21 season after realizing that there was no place for him at Real Madrid. Odegaard chose Arsenal, who wanted to sign him at a young age. He explained why he chose to move to Arsenal, saying, “The moment my agent mentioned that Arsenal was interested, this little memory in the back of my mind came to mind. It just felt right.”

After moving to Arsenal, Odegaard began to spread his wings as a genius midfielder. Especially this season, Odegard is recognized as the best midfielder in the Premier League. Odegaard, who is looking at a career high with 8 goals and 6 assists in 19 league games this season, is the main player who led Arsenal to the top of the league. It is a more valuable achievement because he is the captain of the team.

Arsenal fans have no choice but to applaud Odegaard’s appearance. This is because the original Arsenal captaincy was a place to make dark history. Cesc Fabregas, Robin van Persie, Laurent Koscielny, Granit Xhaka and even Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang all moved on or caused trouble for the team shortly after taking over as captain.

But Odegaard had no intention of leaving Arsenal. He said: “We came back closer, stronger and hungrier. I am so proud to be captain of this club and I feel like I will be here for a long time. Every time I get goosebumps. I’m home. And the best is yet to come. I didn’t,” he promised a long future.
