Odegaard looking to learn from Zidane

Real Madrid midfielder Martin Odegaard has revealed that he is attempting to absorb all the knowledge given to him by Zinedine Zidane.

Odegaard, who is still just 16, joined Real Madrid from Stromgodset in January and went on to make his first-team debut in the final league game of last season.

The Norway international is primarily based with Real Madrid's Castilla team, however, who are currently managed by former Los Blancos midfielder Zidane.

"Zidane is a great coach, a great man to learn from. He was one of the best in the world and it is a privilege to work with him," Odegaard is quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.

Odegaard has been given the No.10 shirt for Castilla this season.
