The Norwegian soccer teamStale Solbakkenbelieve that the decision of Real Madrid dand sell to Martin Ødegaard Two years ago at Arsenal it was the best for the club and for the player himself.
“It’s been great for Martin’s development, and Real Madrid have managed without him. They have some very promising young midfielders, two Frenchmen who have done well, and veterans who have maintained their level. The sale to him at that time was the right decision for the club and even more so for Martin”, he said.
Solbakken, whose team is currently in Marbella to prepare the qualifying match for Euro 2024 against spain, believe, however, thatØdegaard would have stayed at Real Madrid, He can be the captain because he is now at Arsenal, where he has become one of the stars of the English league.
The Norwegian coach stressed that he has “alternatives” to cover the unexpected loss of his top star, the Manchester City striker Erling Haaland, that yesterday he left the concentration after not recovering from some pubic discomfort and will not be able to play against Spain or three days later against Georgia.
Haaland’s absence does not change the plan to face Spain too much, although it changes the plan for the next match, he assured Solbakken, who said he had three doubts about the starting eleven to play in Malaga in three days.
“I heard that a Spanish television filmed the training, so I won’t make it easy for them,” he declared when asked about the possible starting eleven in a press conference only for Norwegian journalists and broadcasts of various digital media in that country.
to SolbakkenHe pointed out that he had come up with a “plan” and that both Real Sociedad strikers, Alexander Sorloth, like Celta Vigo’s Jørgen Strand Larsen, they can play a “central” role.
Apart from City star, Norway he lost to the central defender earlier in the week Kristoffer Ajer (Brentford), also due to injury, but Solbakken He refused to call any players to replace them on the call.
