Rio Ferdinand hails Martin Odegaard as his 'player of the year' after stunning display in Arsenal's win over Tottenham and makes the case for why the playmaker deserves the honour over his 21-goal compatriot Erling Haaland

Martin Odegaard and Arsenal are flying high, no longer going under the radar for stellar performances. So much so, former Manchester United star Rio Ferdinand has named the Norwegian his player of the season.

Odegaard scored a sensational goal in the Gunners' 2-0 victory over Spurs on Sunday and was instrumental in the away side's domination of its bitter rivals.

‘I’d go as far as to say right now, he’s probably my player of the year,’ Ferdinand said on his Vibe with Five podcast.
