then choose the club that he feels will be the best for his development.
Signing for Real Madrid according to the internets.
He should look at how Madrid fucked up Canales.
He just turned 16 though. Talking about who he'll replace is a bit far fetched.
Real have the best facilities in the World and have as I understand it presented him with a plan for how he'll progress into the player they think he can become. If that includes a loan here and there than and Ødegaard is fine with that I say go for it.
The biggest club in the World are desperate to sign you, most players would jump at that chance. He and his father have visited all the top clubs and if this is their decision then its well thought through.
If he's good enough, he'll get to play eventually. If not he'll learn a helluva lot training with the best players in the World, playing for Castilla and then make a career at another club.

Money talks - chalk another one up to the Spanish tax advantage.
Maybe his father has decided padding the bank account now - just in case he flops - is the best way to go. He can always go back to the Norwegian league.
He just turned 16 though. Talking about who he'll replace is a bit far fetched.
I'm not so sure it is.
All the talk is about how he's been guaranteed a route into the first team and that is something important to him. So it's safe to assume he wants to be there or thereabouts in a couple years time, right?
Isco is 22 and James Rodriguez is 23 and Real are still likely to go out and buy more players.
A Marca reporter talked to some Real players after a training session, and they were shocked when they saw what level Odegaard was on in terms of quality. If he signs for them, he'll play some games.
Better than Poulsen?He is a wonder kid. There is no doubt about the quality. Biggest thing since Laudrup from Scandoland. We dont have a chance I think 🙁
Real Madrid paper talks to Real Madrid players about in-demand, hottest teenage prospect in world football (arguably) that Real Madrid want to sign desperately and they enthuse.
WELL,I AM STUNNED, I GOTTA LIE DOWN!
Better than Poulsen?
says a lot about us that we can't even attract a 16 year old whose whole family are reds.
