Arsenal are bound to have a busy summer transfer window but of course, fans hope this business is mainly from players being signed, not those being sold. It's the case for every transfer window, though, that some players must be sold to make room in the squad for those coming in.

5 untouchable players Arsenal must not sell this summer transfer window

With that being said, here are 5 untouchable players Arsenal must not sell in the summer transfer window...

1. Martin Odegaard

Goes without saying, right?

Martin Odegaard extended his Arsenal contract at the start of the season, after he was being linked with a move away following on from an incredible season. The Arsenal captain is the creative hub at the Emirates Stadium and this season he has scored nine goals and provided eight assists across all competitions.

The silky playmaker gives fans flashbacks to Mesut Ozil but unlike his German predecessor, Martin Odegaard simply MUST stay with Arsenal.

Even given the contract extension, it wouldn't surprise me to see top European clubs try their luck. After all, Odegaard is one of the best midfielders in the world and he ages at just 25 years old, so he has yet to hit his peak. From the club's perspective, though, he must remain untouchable.
