The Norwegian and former teammate Alex Iwobi charged towards a loose ball and both slid onto the deck to get their first.

Odegaard made it though and nicked the ball away with the ball away with a backheel touch.

It was one of a number of highlights from a season where he led Arsenal to an unexpected Premier League title charge and made the armband his own.

But despite all the goals and assists, it was this one piece of skill that went viral on the club’s YouTube channel and left fans drooling.

Another added: “He should be arrested for this! It’s illegal!! Pure Genius.”
