Arsenal to get next look at Liverpool trialist Martin Odegaard

Arsenal are set to take a close look at Stromsgodset wonderkid Martin Odegaard. Odegaard has been training with Liverpool this week.

The Mail on Sunday says Arsenal looks like being the next club on 15-year-old child star Odegaard's tour of England, with the schoolboy, who has already played for the Norwegian national side, auditioning major clubs before he makes a decision as to whom to join.

Manchester City, Manchester United, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are also on the trail of the teenager, who spent last week training at Liverpool and looks likely to make a decision based on where he has the most chance of developing and making the first team quickly.

Odegaard will be guided in negotiations by his father, Hans Erik, who was a professional footballer in the Norwegian league and who is now the assistant manager at Norwegian club, Mjondalen.
