He spent much of last season on the sidelines with an Achilles injury.

Now he is back fit, but competition for places at Chelsea mean he would likely struggle for first-team minutes.

Raheem Sterling has added to a forward line this summer that already includes the likes of Kai Havertz, Christian Pulisic, Armando Broja, Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech and Mason Mount.

Hudson-Odoi has been used at wing-back by boss Thomas Tuchel but will not start over Reece James.

As a result the three-cap England international has asked to leave the club.
