According to The Athletic, Callum Hudson-Odoi has made the decision to leave Chelsea during the upcoming summer transfer window.
The 22-year-old winger, who recently completed a loan spell at Bayer Leverkusen, has one year left on his current contract and is looking for a fresh start away from Stamford Bridge.
Despite his intention to depart, Hudson-Odoi will participate in pre-season training with Chelsea. However, it appears that his time at the West London club is coming to an end.
The Blues are willing to listen to offers for the English player this summer. The club aims to streamline their squad for the upcoming season, making a transfer for the attacker likely.
Since making his debut in January 2018, Hudson-Odoi has accumulated 126 appearances for Chelsea. Although he has won several titles, including the Champions League and Europa League, he has not been able to establish himself as a prominent figure in the team.
