Odegaard joined Real Madrid at 16 years-old in 2015 from Norwegian outfit Stromsgodset, after taking a saga that saw the prodigal youngster tour around Europe to find his best suited club.
After spending time playing in Madrid's youth teams, Odegaard began a series of consecutive loan spells at Heerenveen, Vitesse, and now Real Sociedad.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is believed to be a big fan of his compatriot and will hope he can lure the playmaker to Old Trafford.
The Gunners see Odegaard as a natural replacement for Mesut Özil, who is seemingly out of favour under Unai Emery.
Manchester City and Liverpool are thought to see the 20-year-old as the key to their next stage of evolution as the Premier League's top two clubs.
All the interested parties believe they could snap Odegaard up for £25million - with the promise of regular top-flight football.
However, Zinedine Zidane is reportedly considering recalling Odegaard as he looks to remedy ongoing issues for Los Blancos.
