Callum Hudson-Odoi has played across all the youth age levels for Chelsea and is an important figure for the England international youth sides as well. You might remember him as the kid who assisted 2 of England's goals against Spain in the u-17 World Cup.
Hudson-Odoi is fast with the ball at his feet, has great control and strength to hold off opponents and can finish with aplomb too.
Maurizio Sarri will definitely be tempted to give him a few chances and it is almost certain that the youngster will impress.

Jody Morris, Chelsea's former u-18 manager said this about the Englishman,
“He’s still got a lot to do."
“He’ll get a lot of plaudits because he showed in glimpses that he’s got real, real quality, but he also showed in other glimpses that he needs to mature, to follow instructions.”
