Genius and giants seem to be a pair of heaven and earth, but it does not mean that all geniuses can be pampered by the giants from beginning to end, some people are on the rise, some are short-lived, and some people have not had a chance.
Edgar Erdegaard, who joined Real Madrid at the age of 17, was considered the most talented young man in Norway before Haaland came out, but once he entered the giant, in the 6 years of the Bernabeu, Erdegaard only made 11 appearances, and under the leadership of successive managers, the geniuses invariably played the role of marginal people.

Before joining Real Madrid, Erdegaard was a record shredder.
He is the youngest player and youngest goalscorer in the history of the Norwegian Premier League, becoming the youngest international in the history of the Norwegian national team at the age of 15 years and 253 days, and the youngest player in the history of European Championship qualifiers at 15 years and 300 days.
The future is the most intuitive feeling, at least Liverpool, Bayern and Real Madrid are all interested in "Made in Norway", and after weighing the pros and cons, he joined hands with Real Madrid. The reason is that "training and playing with high-level players will improve very quickly."
So when it was rumored that the Galacticos were buying him for 2.8 million euros, there was an uproar, and it was widely believed that Real Madrid had picked up a big bargain.
The star effect attached to Odegaard is obvious.
One is that his Real Madrid shirt has become the highest selling in Norway, surpassing Ronaldo, and the second is that he became the youngest player in the history of Real Madrid at the age of 157 days. As a newcomer, it is decent to hand over 1 goal and 7 assists in the debut season, because in addition to the debut of substitute C Ronaldo, the rest of the time Norwegian geniuses are spent in the Real Madrid reserve team, although this is the only way to grow, but with "genius" as an aesthetic standard, it is not prominent, and there have been public opinion questions similar to "no wonder only sell 2.8 million euros".
Maybe it can't stand the brilliance of gossip, or maybe it has a heart that "I could have" upwards.
Erdegaard is no longer satisfied with training with first-team superstars as a reserve player, and being able to play is his most realistic wish, although it is a bit hasty, but being loaned to Heerenveen is a way for everyone to rejoice.
Real Madrid are also anxious to see their hard-won genius and parallel labels distance themselves from the label of parallel goods, and they even added to the contract "asking Heerenveen to pay Real Madrid 40,000 euros for every game missed if they do not give Odegaard a chance to play".
After a season and a half, Erdegaard has scored 3 goals and assisted 5 times in 43 games, but this is not the basis for him to cash in on his talent at Real Madrid immediately, and even he voluntarily accepted the arrangement of being loaned again, because once he returns to Real Madrid, he will only repeat the story of yesterday, either sitting on the bench in the first team or playing in the reserve team.
After following Real Madrid to the United States for the pre-season, the idea grew stronger, Erdegaard wanted to grow up faster, and Real Madrid also wanted him to take over the aging midfielder earlier, although it did not get his wish, but at least in Vitesse he regained the right to introduce himself, he was called "working like a robot" by the manager.
In fact, his brilliance does not stop there, he has made a hat-trick for assists, he has been voted the player of the month, and at the end of the season, he has the first number of passes and breakthroughs in the Dutch League, compared to the rise in value to 15 million euros, the topic of "he should return to the Bernabeu" has been fermenting in the summer of 2019.
At the same time, Bayer Leverkusen, Ajax and Real Sociedad are also hunting for Erdegaard, who holds the title of "Messi of Norway", and when Real Madrid is waiting for the price, the Norwegian rising star has a clear answer, he wants to show himself as a Real Madrid opponent, and for Zidane, it is much more convenient to let Odegaard substitute or leave than to let other veterans give way, and the controversy is much smaller.
Once upon a time, when Erdegaard first arrived at Real Madrid, it was considered to be just a public relations signing for the expansion of the business territory, and now Zidane's statement is actually unintentionally hurting his own people, for this reason, he joined Real Sociedad on loan is not revenge, he wants to temper himself worthy of Real Madrid in a more advanced league.
"I believe that one day, Real Madrid will need me to come back." Young people's ambitions are not new.
Sure enough, in the 2019-20 Copa del Rey quarter-final Real Sociedad victory over Real Madrid, the opening record of Odegaard achieved a small goal of his own, and in the match against the other two strongballs Barca and Atletico Madrid, he introduced himself as a young man in his early 20s in a passing and scoring manner, and everything did not need to label him a "loser" so quickly, and 7 goals and 9 assists in 36 games was a powerful counterattack.
Fortunately, Real Sociedad proposed a loan + buyout clause to Real Madrid, and Erdegaard did not reject it, but Real Madrid refused. After a spin around, he was recommended by his agent to Arsenal. At first, he was skeptical of the deal, at least his statement was ambiguous: "Arteta seems to be a first-class coach, I like his ideas, his views on football and his personal style. ”
The only certainty is that since the beloved Real Madrid cannot catch up with the self that has been pinned high hopes, it is better to start again in the wandering life that has been experienced again and again, and youth means capital, and it also means that it is in the cold and warm self-knowledge to see yourself in advance.
Although last season's 2 goals and 2 assists in 20 appearances were not brilliant, and even fell back into skepticism, Arsenal still recruited him with 40 million euros, perhaps in today's football at this price point abounds, but in the Gunners, it is the top 10 big hand, which also reflects the importance of Erdegaard to Arsenal.
Each other, like two people huddled together for warmth, strengthened their determination to go down together. 'Erdegaard is a very talented player and we brought in an exciting attacking player for the team. That was what Arteta expected of him.
Now, the Norwegian star who has scored three goals in a row is sought after by the outside world, but he admits that he just wants to stabilize now and is not too disturbed, in fact, at first even Arsenal fans did not expect him to play the role of savior, and even opposed and resented signing him.
In the process of Arsenal's slow climbing up, Erdegaard, who has experienced love and can't help but appreciate the feeling of the moment, so that "I want to help Arsenal get back to the top" is a heartfelt sentence, born in 1998, he also has a long wait to come to Japan, and suddenly called "leader" He said: "This place is like home." ”
