Arsenal have increased their interest in signing Martin Odegaard from Real Madrid on a permanent transfer.
The 22-year-old has been left out of Madrid\'s squad for their opening LaLiga game against Alaves and have indicated they are prepared to do business for a fee in the region of €45 million.
They have already sounded out Lyon over Houssem Aouar and Leicester regarding James Maddison, partly in the belief Madrid would not allow Odegaard to return.
