Fabregas, who did not win the Premier League with the Gunners but did with Chelsea, hopes Odegaard can lead the Gunners to league title success.
He told BBC Sport: "I really like Odegaard and the position and character and profile of player that he is today for Arsenal.
"It reminds me of myself in my time.
“He is a great guy, a great professional and a great leader and he reminds me of when I was captain and was young. He brings energy and the atmosphere up at the Emirates Stadium."
