Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Sky Sport pundit, Jamie Redknapp, has hailed Mikel Arteta\u2019s decision to hand Martin Odegaard the armband as a \u201cmasterstroke\u201d.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old has led the team out for the last four fixtures, with the Gunners taking three consecutive wins.<\/p>\n

Arsenal has been without a permanent captain since Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was stripped of the armband following a disciplinary breach in December.<\/p>\n

Alexandre Lacazette has captained the side whenever he was picked to play but has lost his place to Eddie Nketiah.<\/p>\n

However, in Odegaard, the Gunners may finally have found a player to lead them for years to come.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy bringing him into the team, they might have stumbled across a problem that\u2019s caused Arsenal for a few years, the captaincy.<\/p>\n

\u201cXhaka was captain for a while, didn\u2019t really work, [then] Aubameyang, then they give it to Lacazette. It was almost where no one wanted to be.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut giving it to Odegaard, it feels right for me. He may not be the most vocal but when you watch him play, he organises people, he plays the right pass. He\u2019s a lovely player to watch.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can see from Mikel Arteta\u2019s point of view, he\u2019s almost his manager on the pitch. It might be one where, he\u2019s there for the future, he\u2019s a fantastic player, a good type of guy as well. It\u2019s a masterstroke from Arteta,\u201d Redknapp said on Sky Sports after Arsenal\u2019s 2-1 win over West Ham on Sunday.<\/p>\n
