Odegaard to be named Player of the Month for September in LaLiga Santander Real Madrid Beat Benzema and Gerard Moreno

Martin Odegaard's wonderful form with Real Sociedad has seen the Norwegian named as September's Player of the Month in LaLiga Santander, ahead of Karim Benzema and Gerard Moreno.

The playmaker joined La Real on loan from Real Madrid in the summer, but he has taken to life in San Sebastian like a duck to water, and in September alone, he recorded one goal, two assists, nine successful dribbles, 194 completed passes and five successful crosses. Odegaard managed to score a goal in August, too.

Just seven matches into the 2019/20 campaign, Odegaard has not only displayed his ability but he has shown his capability to lead his team.

On Sunday, he will be presented with the Player of the Month trophy at Anoeta before their clash against Getafe, while it will be handed over by a club legend who is yet to be confirmed.

LaLiga will announce that Odegaard is the winner at noon on October 4.
