report Bayern will not give up their pursuit for the 18-year-old and will improve their offer to £45m.

Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic admitted to German press this week the club are still interested in Hudson-Odoi, despite their rebuffed bids.

The Bundesliga champions lost duo Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery at the end of last season after the wingers contracts expired.

Manchester City winger Leroy Sane is a target for Bayern, while Hudson-Odoi is the favoured to fill the other wing.

However, Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has insisted the English winger is firmly in his future plans, even suggesting he can turn the teen into a “world-class” talent.

Stamford Bridge chiefs are desperate to keep Hudson-Odoi with the club facing a two-window transfer ban.

And with Belgian star Eden Hazard having departed from West London for Real Madrid, holding onto talent is imperative for the Blues.

Chelsea did, however, welcome American wideman Christian Pulisic into the squad this summer, having paid £58million for the 20-year-old in January.
