Arsenal in advanced contract talks with 24yo star
Arsenal are in advanced talks over a long-term contract with club captain Martin Odegaard, according to Daily Mail.
The Norwegian has been a key player for the Gunners over the past few years, and he has continued the good form this term.
The Gunners are keen to reward him for his efforts on the field and it is claimed that talks are advanced over a renewal.
The north London giants want to extend his stay until June 2027, and he could receive a sharp rise on his £125,000-a-week wages.
Aside from Odegaard, the Gunners have opened the door for an extension for Ben White despite three years left on his contract.
White has developed into one of the best right-backs in the Premier League, and the Gunners are prepared to hand him a pay rise.
Arsenal have made a good start to the new season, and they are currently on 10 points after four games into the top-flight campaign.
