Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has ruled his side out of the race to sign Norway youngster Martin Odegaard.

The 15-year-old Stromsgodset midfielder is said to be on the radar of a host of top teams after establishing himself in Norway's national side despite his young age.

However, Mourinho dismissed any talk of the Blues making a bid for him, the Daily Star quoting the Portuguese as saying: "I have heard about him. He goes to 25 clubs. I just want to know which one.

"We are not in condition to go into this fight between the 25 clubs. We are a different profile of club. I don't want to participate in the auction."

Manchester United, Liverpool and Real Madrid are just some of the sides said to be interested in Odegaard.
