Martin Ødegaard

That won't influence the decision, he has very good advisors, they won't just go with the biggest club or pay, they'll do what's best for his young football career.

Watch us tonight. Isn't he similar to Couts and Lallana? This team is set up perfectly for him. Should walk on his knees to get here.

It's weird really, I'd have said Ajax or PSV for now, but maybe they can't afford him. Few players have come through at Real Madrid and made their name, the pressures are too great there.

Pfft........so ****ing what ?

It's quite an achievement to be fair because his legs are tiny

[Chazza]

Confirmed he is signing for Real Madrid.

[Norbs]

****ing whore

So, Martin Odegaard, what on earth made you say 'Yes' to 10-times European champions, offering you wages of £80,000 per week, aged 16?

[TheElephantMan]

Surely they'll just loan him out for his development?

[Rich]

£80k a week for a 16-year old

[Pablo]

A truly mad offer from Real Madrid Surely an offer that ridiculous can only be driven from the intense fear of missing out on the next Messi? It's insane

I really think it's a poor choice from the lad, how is he going to be allowed to develop and concentrate on his game under all that scrutiny there? Feels like a greedy decision, probably largely led by his family.

[baitman]

you cant blame the little scamp.

with that sort of pocket money he can afford to fit a private entrance and secret stairway on the side of his mum and dads house so he can smuggle the hookers in.

[Vermilion]

Are we not a big enough club for a kid who's supported us all his life to come and play for and make his name and fulfill his early ambitions, and make a whole load of dosh if he fulfills his potential!? Sad really.

Not an immediate concern for us thankfully, but would have been nice to have him on the books..

[EwarWoo]

16 million minimum by the times he's 20, regardless of how it pans out for him.

You'd have to be insane to say no.

[Chris]

If he's any good hopefully we pick him up in 2018 or something when they've already got bored of him and sign a flavour of the month from the world cup.

Well, call me insane! and i know it's easy for me to say, but i'd have rather played for LFC, the club i supported since a kid, and be happy with...say...just half of that by the time i was 20!
