I don’t mean to come off as unprofessional, but I’ve had enough. As team captain, I need to speak up before it gets out of hand. Either Arteta sells him this summer, or I’ll have to consider my future elsewhere, says Martin Ødegaard, expressing frustration over the performance of an unnamed Arsenal player yesterday — and it’s not Bukayo Saka.

BREAKING NEWS: TENSION IN THE EMIRATES AS ØDEGAARD THREATENS TO LEAVE OVER TEAMMATE’S PERFORMANCE

The atmosphere at Arsenal has taken an unexpected turn following their recent match, as club captain Martin Ødegaard publicly expressed his frustration with the performance of a fellow teammate. In a shocking post-match statement, Ødegaard made it clear that his patience is wearing thin — and for the first time since taking on the captain’s armband, he has threatened to leave the club if changes aren’t made this summer.

“I don’t want to sound unprofessional,” Ødegaard began, “but at this point, I’m sick and tired of him. As the captain of the team, I have to voice out now before it’s too late. It’s either Arteta sells him in the summer or I find my way out.”

While Ødegaard didn’t mention the player’s name directly, reliable sources confirm it’s not Bukayo Saka, ruling out one of Arsenal’s brightest stars. The incident reportedly occurred after yet another lacklustre display in yesterday’s game, where one Arsenal player’s poor performance cost the team valuable points in their tight Premier League title race.

Fans have been left guessing who the unnamed player could be, with many taking to social media to express their concern and frustration. “Our captain has never been this angry before,” one fan posted. “If Ødegaard is speaking out like this, it means something serious is going on in that dressing room.”

Since joining Arsenal, Martin Ødegaard has been known for his calm, professional demeanour and leadership both on and off the pitch. This unexpected outburst highlights the growing tension within the squad as the season reaches its final stages. The Gunners, who have been battling hard to remain in the title race, cannot afford division in the camp.

Manager Mikel Arteta has yet to comment on the situation, but sources close to the club suggest internal talks are already underway to address the issue. Whether this player will be moved on in the summer remains to be seen, but it’s clear Ødegaard wants decisive action.

Arsenal fans will be hoping this drama doesn’t derail their season as they prepare for a crucial run of fixtures in both domestic and European competitions.
