Chelsea star Callum Hudson-Odoi will reject a massive £85,000-a-week contract as he tries to move to Bayern Munich, according to the Metro.

The 18-year-old hasn’t made a Premier League start for us this season, but has been part of our Europa League squad.

The report adds that Munich have seen four separate bids rejected with the latest one being £35m plus add-ons.

Hudson-Odoi is one our brightest talents but his contract ends in 2020, and the report claims that Chelsea could think of selling him. Munich, for their part, see the Englishman as the successor to Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben.

The report adds that Munich are willing to give the Englishman the No.10 jersey which Robben sports once the Dutch winger leaves in the summer.

Hudson-Odoi has grown frustrated with his lack of Premier League minutes and believes he will get more first-team starts at Munich.

Jadon Sancho has been one of the best examples of an English youngster reaching his potential as he has starred for Borussia Dortmund this season, and we have seen Reiss Nelson do well with Hoffenheim too.

Maurizio Sarri praised the Englishman by claiming he was happy with the star, as per the report, and it would be a huge blow to lose him to the German side.

The Blues aren’t doing all that well in attack, and we should play the youngster in the Premier League this season.

We lost to Arsenal recently and were poor in attack. The loss keeps us just three points ahead of the Gunners as the race for the top four intensifies.
