Chelsea star snubs Arsenal and Premier League 'interest' in favour of Bundesliga transfer exit

Chelsea star and academy graduate Callum Hudson-Odoi is set to leave Stamford Bridge this summer in a loan exit before the end of the transfer window. The youngster's move will be with a view of progressing his career further, having struggled to do so in recent seasons.

The 21-year-old has suffered with a mixture of different issues in the previous year in particular. One of those is struggling to find a place in Thomas Tuchel's system, which relies on wing-backs and narrow forwards - with the youngster more of a traditional winger than either of those roles.

The other problem has come in the fitness department, with injury leaving the England youth international ruled out for 14 games last season. In all, it left Hudson-Odoi making just 28 first-team appearances across the campaign, racking up 1,794 minutes of competitive action.
