Odegaard plumps for Madrid

Teenage sensation Martin Odegaard appears to have made his mind up to join Real Madrid, claims Norwegian outlet VG.no.

The 16-year-old has been linked with a number of clubs over the past few months, including Manchester United and Liverpool, but it seems he may be about to put pen to paper at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Considered to be at his best as an attacking midfielder or playing behind the main striker, Odegaard is the youngest player to ever represent Norway and already has five top-flight goals to his name in 23 games for Stromsgodset.

Odegaard is believed to have boarded a private jet to Madrid to sign for the European champions and his capture could be announced as early as this week.
