Arsenal are prepared to sell Joe Willock in order to fund a move for Martin Odegaard.

21-year-old Willock has netted seven goals in 13 appearances for Newcastle United this season.

After scoring the winner against Sheffield United last weekend, Willock admitted he was open to prolonging his stay in north east.

And now The Daily Telegraph has reported that Arsenal would accept an offer of £20m for the English playmaker.

The Gunners willingness to part ways with their academy product derives from the potential of signing Martin Odegaard on a permanent deal.

Norway star Odegaard has been on loan from Real Madrid since January.
