There’s a lot of Arsenal fans who will be mightily ticked off if this Martin Odegaard deal collapses.

Speculation is rife that the 22-year-old Real Madrid playmaker is going to join the Gunners on loan in the very near future.

According to reliable Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano on Twitter, the deal could be completed in the coming hours.

It definitely looks like Odegaard to Arsenal is a go – and some fans of the North London club think they’ve spotted another clue that a switch to the Emirates Stadium is very much on the agenda.

Real Madrid have a clash against Deportivo Alaves this evening and the Norway international has been officially left out of the squad in what is always an interesting development when the player is linked with a move away from the club.

Here’s how Arsenal fans reacted to that very development on Twitter:

Given how much traction this one has, a lot of supporters will be furious – not ticked off – if Mikel Arteta doesn’t have Odegaard in his squad over the coming days.

It certainly seems like it’s on the card but time will tell.
