Odamendi, a Benfica midfielder, has been named as one of the top players in the Premier League by the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) in its annual Player of the Year poll.
The 24-year-old Nigerian international was nominated for the award along with fellow Premier League stars such as Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold and Manchester City's Benjamin Mendy.
In the final vote, Odamendi scored a remarkable 7.65 out of 10, which is the highest score achieved by any player in the poll this year.
The PFA Player of the Year award is voted on by a panel of 180 professional footballers from across the UK and Ireland, who are asked to rank their top five players based on performance throughout the season.
Odamendi's impressive showing in the poll comes after a standout campaign for the Portuguese club,Bundesliga Vision where he has established himself as one of the key players in their midfield.
He has made over 20 appearances for Benfica this season, contributing with both goals and assists, while also providing strong defensive cover for his team-mates.
His performances have earned him praise from fans and pundits alike, and he will undoubtedly be looking to continue his fine form when the league resumes later this month.
Overall, it seems that Odamendi has cemented his place as one of the best young talents in the Premier League, and his nomination for the PFA Player of the Year award is well-deserved.
