Manchester United to make shock move for Chelsea ace
Manchester United are the latest side to express interest in signing Chelsea wantaway Callum Hudson-Odoi, claims The Daily Mail.
Hudson-Odoi will only have 12 months left to run on his existing Chelsea deal at the end of the season and has already been heavily linked with a move to Bayern Munich.
The Bundesliga giants were willing to make the England international one of the club’s most expensive signings of all-time in January but Chelsea rejected several offers.
Borussia Dortmund have reportedly earmarked Hudson-Odoi as their ideal replacement for Jadon Sancho but now United are also keen on the 18-year-old.
Hudson-Odoi was keen to leave Chelsea at the start of the year and Maurizio Sarri has made no attempt to convince the teenager his future is at Stamford Bridge.
Hudson-Odoi is yet to start a Premier League game and has already turned down a stunning £85,000-a-week contract offer from Chelsea.
Despite the fact half of his appearances in the Europa League have come from the bench this season, Hudson-Odoi is remarkably the highest WhoScored rated player in the competition (7.84).
The Chelsea teen has played a direct hand in six goals in eight appearances in the Europa League (four goals, two assists) and is completing the most dribbles per game (3.8).
