Martin Odegaard's loan move to Arsenal is reportedly close to being agreed after the midfielder ruled out joining Real Sociedad and Ajax.
The 22-year-old is desperate for more game time after he was left out of Real Madrid's squad when they suffered an embarrassing Copa del Rey defeat at minnows Alcoyano on Wednesday.
This will be the Norwegian's fourth loan spell away from the Bernabeu after joining the club as a 16-year-old in 2017.
The midfielder had a successful spell at Real Sociedad last season, contributing seven goals and nine assists in all competitions.
