Odegaard Not happy After Real Madrid Rejection


Arsenal loanee “heartbroken” at the prospect of leaving Real Madrid.


 Martin Odegaard has reportedly been told that his future no longer lies at Santiago Bernabeu, according to 90min. After moving on-loan to Arsenal in the January transfer window, the Norway international made it clear that his preference was to return to Spain in the summer.

However, reports have emerged that Real Madrid don’t see him as part of their rebuild. Zinedine Zidane does not see the 22-year-old as part of his plans and thus the club have told the Norwegian captain that he can find a new club at the end of the season, after failing to establish himself in their first team under the Frenchman.

Thus, Odegaard is understood to be heartbroken at the prospect of leaving Real Madrid this summer.

Before moving to the Spanish giants in 2015, Arsenal were reportedly interested in signing the young Norwegian star. The Real Marid loanee even visited London Colney before deciding to join the Los Blancos.

It is no secret that Arsenal will try to retain their star midfielder beyond the upcoming summer. He has made a positive impact at the Emirates Stadium since the switch and has even stated that he would like to have some “stability” in his career.

The Gunners must also be aware of the interest in him. Due to his strong performances at Arsenal, the midfielder has reportedly caught the eyes of Chelsea, Liverpool and even French champions Paris Saint Germain.

If Arsenal don’t qualify for Europe this season, they can forget about signing players of Odegaard’s caliber.

The drawing board of Edu (technical director) must have all the situations that can pan out at the end of the season. Whether they qualify for Champions League or the Europa League.

If they don’t qualify for Europe at all, the fans will definitely point out at how far the club have fallen since they won the league in 2004.

Elneny Eyeing New Contract At Arsenal After Earning Second Chance Under Arteta

The Egyptian midfielder spent the 2019-20 season on loan at Besiktas but has been welcomed back into the Gunners fold by a Spanish tactician Mohamed Elneny is looking to complete a remarkable turnaround at Arsenal by landing himself a contract extension. The Egyptian midfielder appeared destined to be heading for the exits when Unai Emery sent him out on loan to Besiktas at the start of the 2019-20 campaign, with alternative options being favoured in north London. Another Spanish coach, Mikel Arteta, has found room for the 28-year-old within his plans, though, and it could be that fresh terms are now thrashed out at Emirates Stadium. What has been said? Elneny has said in the Evening Standard: “Of course, for me I am always loyal to Arsenal. “And if Arsenal say to me: ‘Sign a new contract’, of course I would be happy to do this.” When does Elneny’s current deal expire? Arsenal snapped up a hard-working performer from FC Basel in January 2016. Elneny has taken in 119 appearances for the...

Two Premier League Clubs Want On-Loan Arsenal Man

 Crystal Palace and Leeds United are interested in signing Ainsley Maitland-Niles in the summer. The Arsenal man has spent this second half of the season on loan at West Brom after finding first-team chances scarce at the Emirates. He could have joined several teams but chose Sam Allardyce’s struggling side because they guaranteed him minutes in midfield. He has been an ever-present in their team since he made the move from the Emirates. It remains unclear if his performances have earned him the right to get more playing time at Arsenal next season. However, if the Gunners decide that he can leave, the two Premier League teams will pounce to sign him, according to Mirror Football. They face competition from AS Monaco from outside, but he is likely to choose an England stay. Leeds has been one of the best teams to watch in the Premier League this season. Palace is looking to reduce the average age of their squad when the transfer window reopens again and they consider him to be one ...

Arsenal Started Negotiations With 19-Year-Old Brazilian Striker

 Kaio Jorge has become a hot property in the transfer market ahead of the summer transfer window.   The Brazilian centre-forward is being chased by Arsenal and Chelsea among several other top European teams, with his contract with Santos running out in December. Kaio joined the Santos academy in 2012 at the age of 10 before making rapid strides within the youth setup. Jorge made such a quick impression on his youth bosses that he ended up making his first-team debut in 2018 while still only 16. Since then, he has progressed considerably and has gone on to play 50 further games for Santos. The Brazilian club, though, are in a precarious position over the future of the 19-year-old striker, whose current deal will expire when the year ends. This situation has alerted a number of top clubs in Europe, including Gunners and Chelsea, to the possible availability of the 19-year-old striker. Gunners are set to be forced into the market for a striker owing to the uncertain future of Ale...
