Odegaard 'recommends' Real Madrid to sign Kristoffer Ajer – is he the new Sergio Ramos?

Martin Odegaard has recommended Real Madrid to sign his compatriot Kristoffer Ajer, Mundo Deportivo understand.

The Norwegian defender currently plays for Celtic and could be viewed as a future Sergio Ramos replacement.

However, apart from playing at centre-back, Ajer is known for his ability to play on the right and even in defensive midfield. As a reminder, Sergio Ramos was often used on the right after he joined Real Madrid in the mid-2000s.

The 22-year-old is valued at just €2.7m by Transfermarkt. However, let's not forget that Virgil van Dijk, who also played for Celtic earlier, was sold for a modest sum four years before he became a world-class defender.

If Real Madrid actually go for the move, we could see the club forming an ultimate trio of Norwegians: Ajer, Odegaard and Erling Haaland if the latter agrees to join the Whites in a year or two.
