Borussia Dortmund 'lining up double Chelsea raid'

Borussia Dortmund 'lining up double Chelsea raid'

Borussia Dortmund are reportedly eyeing a double swoop for Chelsea pair Callum Hudson-Odoi and Tammy Abraham this summer.

Highly-rated prospect Hudson-Odoi remained at the club last summer despite interest from Bayern Munich, but he has failed to thrive with just 10 Premier League starts under his belt in the 2020-21 season.

Abraham, meanwhile, enjoyed regular game time under the tutelage of Frank Lampard, but he has failed to win over Thomas Tuchel and played no part in any of Chelsea's last four Premier League matches.

With neither player thought to be in Tuchel's long-term plans, 90Min reports that Dortmund and Chelsea are in talks over a move to Germany for the duo, where it is hoped that the Bundesliga outfit could help reignite their careers.

The Blues continue to be linked with moves for Dortmund duo Jadon Sancho and Erling Braut Haaland, but there is nothing to suggest that Hudson-Odoi or Abraham could be used as makeweights in any part-exchange deals.

Both players are said to be open to moves to the Westfalenstadion, even though they would have to agree to a wage decrease in order to represent the Black and Yellow.
