Bodo/Glimt's big European moment is a good time to reflect on the investment in Norwegian youth football.
Norway is now one of Europe’s top producers of elite players (think Haaland and Odegaard) with U21 domestic minutes in the top division dwarfing that of size equivalents such as the Scottish Premiership.
Copying from the Icelandic model, investment has been placed into mini-pitches to encourage “street football”. With 94% of mini-pitches located on school grounds, heavily used during school hours, breaks, and evenings, often until 11pm!
Players are developed locally (no academy registration before U15), with £8.5m of TV revenue going into club academies. What a success story it's turning out to be! 🇳🇴
