Coveted Norwegian Odegaard has eyes for Liverpool

Norwegian teenage prodigy Martin Odegaard admits Liverpool are his dream club but that will not influence any decision on his future. The 15 year old has already trained with the youth teams of Bundesliga sides Bayern Munich and Stuttgart, - and also met Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp - has visited Real Madrid and is set to see Liverpool's facilities for himself next month.

"Liverpool have always been my dream club," the Stromsgodset midfielder told German newspaper Sport Bild.

"But I will not let this affect my decision when I choose a new club.

"It's all about finding the team that is best for me and for my development. That is not necessarily Liverpool.

"I haven't really thought about my future yet. I will end the season here and then visit a number of clubs. I have not made a final decision yet, though.

"Of course, it's flattering when you hear that big clubs are after you, but I don't think about it too often."
