Liverpool make shock move for Chelsea ace
Liverpool have joined the race for Chelsea ace Callum Hudson-Odoi, it’s claimed.
The 18-year-old is keen to quit Stamford Bridge after a lack of game time in west London.
Bayern Munich are desperate to sign the winger, who is frustrated under Maurizio Sarri.
It’s claimed the youngster has snubbed Chelsea’s offer of a new contract worth £85,000-a-week in a bid to force through a move to Bayern.
However, according to German newspaper Bild, Liverpool are in the running to sign Hudson-Odoi.
They say the Reds have even held a meeting with Hudson-Odoi’s brother and agent, Bradley, in hope of landing the Chelsea ace.
Bild claim the transfer meeting took place in the beginning of January.
As well as Bayern and Liverpool, Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig have also tabled an offer to Hudson-Odoi.
Chelsea boss Sarri has been vocal on Hudson-Odoi’s future, with the Italian urging the youngster to stay put.
