On Tuesday's press conference before the Chelsea and Tottenham match in England, TV 2 asked José Mourinho if he has heard about the big talent from Strømsgodset, Martin Ødegaard. The 15-year-old has for a long time been connected to a number of large clubs in Europe.

Mourinho answered: “I have heard a lot about him. I have read that he will be going to 25 clubs. I would like to know who he will go to.”
 
At the same time, the Chelsea manager said Ødegaard is not part of the plans under his leadership at Stamford Bridge club right now.
 
“We are not in a position to compete with twenty-five other clubs for him. We are a different profile of club,” said Mourinho.
