I'm by no means an authority on Norwegian football (or football in general, if we're being honest), but these Ødegaard comparisons seem a bit off the mark as Nypan doesn't boast that caliber of close control, balance, overall technique, depth of play (yet!) or spidey senses? Paquetá might be a more approriate reference point if he continues on an upward trajectory, and when you think about it, that's also the profile of playmaker we could do with at First Team level (particularly if Wilcox's rumored “game model” is progressively adopted over the coming seasons) — someone who offers the versatility to operate as a mezzala of sorts (creative but adequately controlled in possession, press-resistant and mobile, reasonably good ball-carring nous, comfortable through the half-spaces) rather than a largely centrally-oriented, somewhat orthodox No. 10.
