So bizarre.
Why the reporter felt the need to sing to Odegaard, we will never know.
But we’re glad he did because it made for a bizarre yet comical exchange. Odegaard didn’t quite know where to look and almost looked bemused as he was serenaded.
He remained polite, though, and told the reporter after he had finished singing, per football.london: “Thank you, that was beautiful, great work.”
