Martin Odegaard blamed for Real Madrid Castilla failure

Martin Odegaard is being blamed for Real Madrid Castilla's demise this season.

The Norwegian arrived in January and has struggled to settle into the system of Castilla coach Zinedine Zidane.

Odegaard's arrival has caused friction inside the locker room, with his high wages and absence from training leaving teammates unimpressed, says AS.

Castilla players believe Odegaard had no interest in helping them get out of Segunda B - instead his sole focus being to break into Carlo Ancelotti's first team.

Odegaard could be granted his wish this weekend against Getafe.
