Newcastle United open talks for Ghanaian Callum Hudson-Odoi from Chelsea
Newcastle United have begun talks with Chelsea forward Callum Hudson-Odoi about a possible summer transfer, according to reports.
The 21-year-old has spent his entire professional career with the Blues after coming through the club’s youth system.
He made his senior debut in January 2018 and has since played in 126 games across all competitions.
England approached the talented youngster in 2019, and he now has three caps to his name.
However, he hasn’t played for his country in three years and plays only a minor role at Stamford Bridge.
He started just 10 Premier League games in 2020-2021 and 11 last season, often coming off the bench.
The Ghanaian who plays international football for England has bagged 16 goals for the west Londoners but his days at the club may be numbered heading into the new season.
Thomas Tuchel plans for the 2022-2023 season may exclude Odoi from the spot with the winger likely to fall behind Mason Mount, Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic and Raheem Sterling in the pegging order.
