Erling Haaland has told Mikel Arteta that he needs to give Martin Odegaard regular minutes to see the best of him.

The Norwegian made the move to Arsenal from Real Madrid on loan for the rest of the season.

Odegaard has struggled to establish himself in the Spanish capital, but reminded the world of his quality in a loan spell at Real Sociedad recently.

Haaland has hailed his compatriot as a confidence player and insists when he is feeling comfortable that “incredible things can happen”.

“It will be interesting. Arsenal are a big club in England,” Haaland told VG when asked about Odegaard’s move to Arsenal.

“It’s a bit different football, but I think he can fit in well with Mikel Arteta in the No.10 role. He can enjoy himself there.

“He has to get in there and simply start playing games. That’s what he needs.

“We know how good Odegaard can be. When he gains confidence with the ball, we know that the most incredible things can happen.”
