Arsenal captain Odegaard says title win fulfilment of lifelong dream | OneFootball

Martin Odegaard has said lifting the Premier League title as Arsenal captain is the fulfilment of a lifelong dream.

Arsenal were presented with the Premier League trophy following the club’s final fixture of the campaign at Crystal Palace.

Odegaard became only the third Arsenal captain to lift the title in the Premier League era, following on from Tony Adams (1998 and 2002) and Patrick Vieira (2004).

Arsenal’s title success this season ended a 22-year wait for a major trophy and Odegaard opened up on the emotions of an unforgettable afternoon.

“It feels unreal – hard to put it into words, but just so proud, happy and emotional,” he said post-match.

“It’s a crazy, crazy feeling. Walking up towards the trophy and just realising everything is a mad feeling. I’m just so proud of everyone for the way we did it and everything we’ve been through, and to finally get over the line just means the world to everyone, so I’m so happy.

“You can’t imagine what it’s like. We had a great night on Tuesday, together at the training ground.

“And then today to lift the trophy – this is what I’ve been dreaming about my whole life, to win the Premier League, and to be at this stage is unbelievable.”
