'This is a dream come true. This is something I have dreamt about since I was a little boy,' Odegaard said on Tuesday.

'I am incredibly proud to play with the flag on my chest and represent my country,' he added.

Sportsmail highlighted Odegaard's meteoric rise through the ranks, bringing him to the attention of Spanish giants Real Madrid in July.

Coach Per-Mathias Hogmo included the teenager in his squad, after a string of impressive performances for his club.

Hogmo said that he considered Odegaard 'would be one of this year's rising stars'.

'I am looking forward seeing him in action,' he added.

He signed a professional contract with Stromsgodset in May to keep him at the club for until 2015, but the two-time Norwegian champions will be bracing themselves for a bombardment of interest. Odegaard is a Liverpool fan, but has been courted by fellow European giants Bayern Munich and Manchester United.
