Chelsea forward Callum Hudson-Odoi may reportedly be sold in the summer as the Blues are worried about losing him for nothing when he becomes a free agent next year.

Chelsea are reportedly contemplating whether to sell Callum Hudson-Odoi this summer or risk losing him for nothing in a year's time.

The teenage forward was the subject of a £35m bid from Bayern Munich in January, an offer that the Blues turned down amid fan pressure.

Hudson-Odoi has offered no indication that he is willing to extend his contract, though, meaning that he will become a free agent in 2020.

With the England international's valuation decreasing, the Daily Mail suggests that cashing in over the coming months is now a serious possibility.

That is despite a FIFA-imposed transfer ban looming, preventing Chelsea from bringing in any replacement - other than the already-signed Christian Pulisic - for the next two windows.

Hudson-Odoi had been given more opportunities by Maurizio Sarri over the past couple of months, only for an Achilles injury to curtail his season a couple of weeks ago, likely ruling him out until September.
