Carlo Ancelotti has announced that Norwegian teenage sensation Martin Odegaard will be a part of his Real Madrid squad for the midweek clash against Almeria.
The 16-year-old joined Los Blancos in a high-profile £2.3m move from Stromgodset earlier this year, although he has yet to run out for the first team.
That could change on Wednesday night, however, as Odegaard is one of three Real Madrid Castilla players to make the cut for the La Liga meeting at the Bernabeu.
"Tomorrow in the squad there will be three youth team players and they could get an opportunity to play," Ancelotti is quoted as saying by Goal.com.
Madrid are still without injured trio Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema and Luka Modric, while Sergio Ramos and Dani Carvajal will be absent through suspension.
