Отсъствието на Мартин Йодегаард през последния почти месец е очевидно. Под ръководството на Рафаел Бенитес, норвежецът изигра само 45 минути във всичките предсезонни контроли на Реал Мадрид. Това се случи в първата, срещу Рома, на 18-ти юли.
Детето-чудо на Европа започна като титуляр във въпросния мач, но от тогава не се е появявал на терена. Изглежда, че тийнеиджърът остана в сянката на другите млади звезди в селекцията- Марко Асенсио и Борха Майорал, които през това лято получаваха шанс за изява доста по-често.
Да остане в "Кастия" или да отиде под наем?
По всичко изглежда, че шансовете на Йодегаард да попадне в първия тим за предстоящия сезон са минимални. Следователно, пред него стоят две опции- или да заиграе под наем в друг клуб, или да остане под крилото на Зинедин Зидан в "Кастия" (младежката формация на Реал Мадрид), за още една година.
За момента, изглежда, че предпочитанията на норвежкото дете-чудо са да прекара следващия сезон в друг елитен клуб. Това ще е от полза и за двете страни. И Йодегаард и Реал Мадрид искат той да натрупа още опит на най-високо ниво.
Каквото и да се случи, „кралският” клуб ще следят Йодегаард изкъсо. Ръководството знае, че той е прекалено млад и трябва да направят всичко възможно, нищо да не навреди на развитието на играча, който има светло бъдеще на „Сантиаго Бернабеу”.
В неделя Реал приключват предсезонната си подготовка в Осло с приятелски мач срещу местния Волеренга. Това ще е и последният шанс за Йодегаард да покаже на какво е способен, и то на родна земя.
Martin Ødegaard has been conspicuous by his absence for almost a month now. The Norwegian has only played 45 minutes all pre-season and they came in the opening game against Roma on 18th July. The attacking midfielder started that day, but has not kicked a ball in anger since then. The teenager seems to have dropped behind other starlets such as Marco Asensio and Borja Mayoral.
Castilla stay or away on loan?
Since there appears to be no chance of him making an impact in the first team this season, Ødegaard has two options: he can either go out on loan or stay under Zinedine Zidane's wing at Castilla for another year.
At the moment, it looks likely that the Norway international will spend a year at another top-flight club. Both he and Real Madrid are keen for him to get more experience at the highest level.
Whatever happens, 'Los Blancos' will be keeping close tabs on Ødegaard. They know he remains extremely young and are desperate to make sure nothing hinders the development of a player who could have a big future at the Bernabéu.
On Sunday Real round off their pre-season in Oslo. This will be Ødegaard's last chance to show what he's all about, and in his homeland to boot.
