iseah100 5,612 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Martin Odegaard will finally play each week with Castilla (U-21 of Real Madrid, whose coach is Zinedine Zidane) but will train every day with the first team with Real Madrid with Carlo Ancelotti.I think this guy is not well advised. of Real Madrid is probably one of the worst teams in the world for young boys. For the model club of Real Madrid, they fichan each year a major star of world football, and usually always be an attacker. Martin Odegaard it will be very very difficult.Moreover, in Spain's U-21 teams do not play in a league of young teams like England, in Spain play against teams with guys 28 years old, older and playing strong. Many children suffer Young playing against players with much experience (they are old dogs).I think Real Madrid are a bit obsessed with create their own Lionel Messi. They spent years signing many great young players, but then never reach the first team (Samuel Etoo get to Madrid with 15 years old to give an example).I think Martin Odegaard has chosen the worst option he had. of Real Madrid just looking to have great players already consecrated.Regards.I absolutely agree. Although being with Zidane and Ancelotti daily could help, they don't have a track record of grooming young players. My guess is he gets lost in the shuffle and we forget about him by the time he is 20.And people are calling him stupid He is stupid, he's 16, he doesn't NEEED 80k a week. Had he gone to Ajax he would still be making, what, 35k a week? At 16? With the chance to grow at a club known for grooming young talent? Stupid.

There first team would be lucky to get that. He'd be on 2k tops. He will get a fantastic experience and if he doesn't make it there he will be able to sign for any club in the world. Signing for Madrid he has made it instantly.People are just being little bitches and crying cos Real sign all the players they want. Hi Reus.

Hi Reus.I didn't want Chelsea to get him, but to say he isn't stupid is ridiculous. He's 16 and followed the money, all good for him, but for his career it wasn't a good move.

It's naive to think they're not in it for the money and the lifestyle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionsden 4,689 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 It's interesting because the reactions on here is the same as opposition fans whenever we sign a "wonderkid". He's only 16, so if he continues his growth, he could be the next Carvajal as Real seems to be moving towards a different approach regarding transfer policy with first team signings like Isco,James, varane and Illaramendi. I wouldn't write him off just yet. Real are no worse than us in terms of youth development and integration.The only issue with the transfer is obviously the reported wages. 80k a week is absolute madness for an unproven 16 yo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Odegaard would be best suited to be loaned to a Belgian/Durch to see how he progresses. If he's successful you move him up to a German/French/mid table PL/La Liga team.I'm not a big fan of academies unless a kid is a slightly built.

DH1988 1,353 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 This is a prime time for Uefa or Fifa to bring in a young persons law to cap contracts per age brackets.Absolutely ridiculous and I am shocked there is not more journalists piping up about this.

Jype 6,398 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I laugh at the people saying he made a stupid decision to join RM. If the club is mad enough to commit to paying a 16 year old kid 65-80k a week for who knows how many years, he and his family will be set for life even if he breaks his leg in the next training session and never plays a senior football match again. Had he gone to Ajax or some other club known for being good with youngsters he would now be in an environment better suited for his development as a player but at 16 it's still way too early to say if he would still ever make it to actually be good enough for that kind of money and I'm 100% sure the kid would one day regret not going to Real Madrid if he never developed good enough for the big leagues and was stuck playing Eredivisie level football on peanut wages at his peak. We see these hyped youngsters all the time and most of them don't ever even peak at the level where they can earn themselves a five year contract worth around €20m total.Even if things don't work out for him at Real Madrid he can still become one hell of a player because in say three years from now he'll only be 19 and that's pretty much the age people usually just enter the world of first team football at top level. He'll have earned a fortune by then and if he wants I'm sure a club like Ajax would still welcome him with open arms.If a transfer in football can ever be called a no-brainer from the player's perspective it's this one.

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Apparently they gave his father a job at Real Madrid too. So it's not the stupidest move a 16-year old could make lmao.. He has plenty of time to prove his worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
