Arsenal looks like a champion and captain Martin Ødegaard is a very important part of that. In addition to being the ultimate playmaker, he is important off the pitch as well. – As a result, the London club is working right now to make the 27-year-old Norwegian midfielder one of the highest paid in the Premier League.
Sunday’s game at The City Ground is a typical example of why Arsenal look like champions. – They won a hard-fought victory over Nottingham Forest ten minutes before full-time.

It’s no secret that Antonio Nusa is attracting Arsenal’s interest, and the Gunners are expected to step up their pursuit of the winger in the upcoming transfer window. The Norwegian has impressed since joining RB Leipzig and is seen as a player who can bolster Arsenal’s attacking options.
Nusa has also delivered solidly for the Norwegian national team during the World Cup qualifiers. His performances have raised his profile further and made him an attractive option for clubs that want to add quality and depth to the attacking line.
Arsenal are considering signing Nusa
Arsenal have reportedly been following Nusa for several months and believe he can make a valuable contribution if they secure his signature. The club has room to strengthen on the left wing, and an arrival from the Norwegian could provide more options in that position.
The need for a new winger became even more evident after Christos Tzolis’ injury. Had Arsenal completed a move for Nusa this summer, he could have been available to cover that absence. Now, the Gunners will have another opportunity to address the need in the next transfer window.
However, Arsenal are not the only club interested in the Norwegian. The competition for his signature could make negotiations difficult – and Arsenal may have to use every available advantage to convince him to move to North London.
Ødegaard could be a key
According to Caught Offside, Martin Ødegaard could play an important role in convincing Nusa to choose Arsenal. Both represent Norway, where Ødegaard is the captain and a respected figure in the national team squad.
The international bond could give Arsenal an advantage when they present their project to the winger. Ødegaard can explain the club’s ambitions and what Nusa can expect if he joins the Gunners – although there is no guarantee that this will determine the player’s decision.
Nusa will provide Arsenal with another attacking option in their quest to bolster their squad and fight for major trophies. His speed and skills on the wing could suit the club’s plans, and a new quality player in attack will give the manager more flexibility.
Arsenal’s interest will depend on whether they manage to reach an agreement with Leipzig – and whether they manage to convince Nusa that North London is the right destination for the next phase of his career.
