Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has been named Premier League Player of the Month for November and December after his impressive performances.
The midfielder guided the Gunners to four consecutive victories in the top-flight, helping them pull seven points clear of Manchester City at the top of the league table.
Odegaard produced three goals and three assists across November and December, the most goal involvements by any Premier League player during that time β therefore making him the clear favourite to win the accolade.
He is also the first Arsenal player to claim the monthly award since former captain and now Chelsea striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang back in September, 2019.
Odegaard topped an eight-man shortlist that included Casemiro, Haaland, Ben Mee, Joao Palhinha, Marcus Rashford, Kieran Trippier and his team-mate Bukayo Saka.
Odeggard told the Arsenal website:
βIt feels great. Iβve said a lot of times this team has a lot of young, hungry players and we play so well with each other, so itβs just a pleasure to be here and to be part of what weβre doing now.
βItβs a pleasure to play with them and show my qualities so Iβm very happy to get this award.β
