Norway's 16-year-old international midfielder Martin Odegaard could be about to join Celtic on loan.

The Scottish Premiership champions are managed by the Real Madrid youngster's former club manager Ronny Deila.

The two previously worked together at Norwegian top flight side Stromsgodset, where Deila gave him his debut at 15.

According to reports, Celtic are in pole position to bring him in on a season-long loan from Celtic.

At just 16, Odegaard already has six caps for the Norway senior team and lined out for Real Madrid in their final La Liga game of 2014/15 to become their youngest all-time debutant.
