Transfer news: Chelsea holding out for more on Callum Hudson-Odoi
Chelsea will probably be the talk of the transfer window, as they still build in the Sarri era. With players coming in, players are always on their way out.
Chelsea have already been the talk of the town regarding a special signing, who’s just agreed to join the club. That’s according to reports. Now they on the brink of losing one of their talented youngsters to German club, Bayern Munich.
Callum Hudson-Odoi, known as one of the hottest English prospects could take leave from the English Premier League and Chelsea. What sheds light on the transfer is how much Bayern are prepared to pay for him and what Chelsea are not ready to let him go for.
The second offer of £20 million has been put forward but has been rejected again by the Blues. This shows the Blues are not ready to let go of their most prized possession. Sarri is known for giving all an opportunity but when will this young man get his?

If new players are being signed to take up first team starts, why are they fighting off clubs taking their great potential? Hudson is only 18-years of age and his chance could take longer to come at Chelsea than at Munich. They have been struggling and time for new stock is now.
A big game against Liverpool in the Champions League at the turn of the year makes them want to complete business early. If so, the money must be coughed up. Chelsea doesn’t seem a team who will budge on prices, as they hold out for more than £20 million as reports suggest.

Feelings on this?
I feel he will go and the right deal will be struck. The Germans need fresh replacements for their old legs they’ve relied on for so long. With the German title looking like its BVB at the moment, the move makes all the sense in the world.
Chelsea are in search of talent to help convince their best player to stay and to help show content for bigger trophies. The player himself could be in a place where some of his fellow Englishmen are, and that’s playing regular football at the tender age of 18-years of age.
