Martin Odegaard completes his medical at Arsenal ahead of loan move from Real Madrid

Arsenal have agreed deal to sign Martin Odegaard on loan from Real Madrid. It's been gathered that the Norway midfielder was keen to leave Bernabeu in search of first-team football.

Arsenal have agreed to sign the 22-year-old on loan until the end of the season, with the deal expected to be confirmed in the next 24 hours. 

He arrived London earlier today at the London Colney to undergo his medical and meet his new team mates. 

Odegaard registered seven goals and nine assists across 36 appearances on loan at the La Liga side last season.

Odegaard will become Arsenal's second signing of the January window after the club secured the services of Brighton goalkeeper Mat Ryan on a loan deal until the end of the season
