Odegaard began his career in Norwegian football by breaking into Stromsgodset’s first team at the incredibly young age of 13-years-old.

Three years later Odegaard left Norway in a £3m move to the Bernabeu in 2015.

He initially played under Zinedine Zidane in Madrid’s reserve side, but the left-footed midfielder failed to reach the level expected to play at the Bernabeu.

Los Blancos were keen to continue his development and sent out the young Norwegian to Holland, in the hope he would gain valuable experience.

Odegaard’s 18-month loan spell at Heerenveen was productive as he made 40 Eredivisie appearances and scored three goals.
