Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has signed a new five-year contract with the club.

The influential Norwegian midfielder, who was Arsenal’s player of the season last campaign, has committed his future until 2028.

The 24-year-old initially joined on loan from Real Madrid in 2021 and said he has found his “home” at the Gunners.

“Signing a new contract was a really easy decision for me for lots of reasons,” Odegaard said.

“Mainly what we are doing right now as a club is special, and I want to be a part of that. I’m really excited for what’s to come here. I’ve found a place where I can be really settled and call my home.

“My story is a bit different maybe, as I moved around different clubs since I was 16. At Arsenal, since the first day, I’ve felt great and this is definitely my home now.

“I just want to say thanks to everyone working at the club and of course, our fantastic supporters. I will continue to give everything to bring success to this club in the years to come.”
