In-demand Norwegian teen sensation Martin Odegaard spent time training at Bayern Munich for two days last week.

Odegaard, who was at Liverpool last week, also crammed in a visit to Bayern Munich to train under Pep Guardiola, according to German daily TZ.




Bayern Munich have been aware of Odegaard's talents for some time, having the midfielder over to Germany for training a year ago, at which time they decided to pass on signing him.

The Bavarians felt Odegaard needed several more years to develop in Norway with Stromsgodset and admit to being shocked at how rapidly he has now grown as a player.

 


They now have serious competition for Odegaard, as Liverpool, Barcelona, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, Celtic, Ajax and Borussia Dortmund all chase the 15-year-old's signature.

But Bayern Munich are working hard to woo the senior Norway international and Guardiola took training with him last week in another attempt to convince him his future lies at the Allianz Arena.

No quick decision over his destination is expected however, as Odegaard is due to join Ajax for training in mid-January.
