The player is seen as a potential option for the future, and a decision will be made at the end of the campaign after months of training with Pep Guardiola's squad whether to keep the player at the Etihad Stadium for next season or to send him on loan for his development.
Odegaard sends strong City message
Arsenal players don't care about Manchester City, their captain Martin Odegaard says, as he fired a warning to the Blues from the Premier League table-toppers.

It looked as though City would gain some ground on the Gunners, until Eddie Nketiah's late winner vs United moved them back to five points ahead of City with a game in hand. And after the game, Odegaard was asked about the impact City's results have had on the Arsenal title-chasing squad.
