Arsenal prioritising move for Martin Odegaard, Houssem Aouar the alternative

Arsenal have earmarked Real Madrid’s Martin Odegaard as their top attacking target with Houssem Aouar being the alternative, The Athletic’s James Nicholas reports.

The Gunners are keen on pursuing a creative midfielder this summer, and they have heavily linked with Leicester City’s James Maddison in recent weeks.

However, it appears that the club have not made any approach for the Foxes ace, and their priority remains on re-signing Odegaard, who was on loan earlier this year.

In case they fail to recruit him, it is reported that Aouar is the alternative.
