Hudson-Odoi determined to quit Chelsea for Bayern Munich

Callum Hudson-Odoi is determined to quit Chelsea for Bayern Munich.

The Daily Mail says Hudson-Odoi is ready to reject Chelsea's offer of £85,000-a-week and hold out for a move to Bayern Munich because he believes he has more chance of developing in the Bundesliga.

Bayern Munich, who have already bid £35million for the player, would be expected to offer him Arjen Robben's No 10 shirt when the Dutch winger retires this summer, as a mark of how much they believe in the 18-year-old from south London.

The German giants expect Hudson-Odoi to go straight into their first team, and though Chelsea made their offer last week in a bid to keep the jewel in the crown of the academy, it is clear that manager Maurizio Sarri will only play Hudson-Odoi in fits and starts as he battles to hang on to fourth place and Champions League qualification.
