The next season, under Rafael Benitez, the time of the game was more limited.
“It was given 45 minutes before the season, “more believe in faith,” he said, adding: “Only another appearance under Benitez’s hands came in a friendly manner in Oslo, which was supposed to win his reputation in Norway.
Odigard missed a minute of competition for the first team, just once in Levant in March after Zidane replaced Benitez as president.
He also fought to influence Castilla, and has made 22 of his 38 appearances on the bench.

“I’m 100% when they made a choice. He didn’t have an agent, his father did everything, when Real Madrid came to make a deal, they used an agent.
“Hans Erik conducted the whole process and if you have skilled people around you, it is the best because he has no financial intentions, he had only one intention and that’s the best for Martin.
