Manchester United 'join race for Martin Odegaard'

Manchester United have reportedly identified Real Madrid youngster Martin Odegaard as a potential future signing.

Having impressed during the early stages of his loan spell with Real Sociedad, the 20-year-old has been linked with an early return to the Bernabeu, as well as a number of clubs in the Premier League.

Manchester City, Arsenal and Wolverhampton Wanderers are among the English sides who are said to hold an interest in the Norway international.

However, according to The Sun, United are also keen on bringing the playmaker to Old Trafford as compatriot Ole Gunnar Solskjaer looks to add more young players to his first-team squad.

As it stands, Real boss Zinedine Zidane allegedly plans on using Odegaard in his Los Blancos squad next season, although that could change should Real opt to cash in on the player to boost their funds for other targets.
