Callum Hudson-Odoi has agreed a five-year deal worth more than £100,000 a week to stay at Chelsea

The England winger, 18, handed in a transfer request in January after Chelsea rejected a £35m bid from Bayern Munich.

But he is set to sign a new contract before the start of the season.

The youngster is understood to have been encouraged by positive words from new manager Frank Lampard, who said he wanted Hudson-Odoi to stay.

The teenager, who is recovering from an Achilles injury suffered in April, is on track for a quick return to action, potentially as soon as September.

Throughout the negotiations, playing time is understood to have been the key issue for Hudson-Odoi, who made 24 appearances and scored five goals under former boss Maurizio Sarri last season.

But he had to wait until April to make his first Premier League start, having already made his England debut.

Former Chelsea and England midfielder Lampard, who took charge of the Blues earlier in July, said the academy graduate can be a "huge player" for his team.

Midfielders Mason Mount and Ruben Loftus-Cheek have signed new deals since Lampard took over from Sarri.

The manager previously said of Hudson-Odoi: "I am not going to say things that are pie in the sky but, with his talent, he can be central to this team, he can be central to England.

"He can show, right here at Chelsea, the team he came through the academy at, that he is going to be a world-class player - because I truly believe that."

The difference a new manager can make. Another huge talent that would've gone away but for the intervention of a new manager who knows the importance of raw young talents

Reminds me of the ridiculous contract we gave Lord Bentner when he joined Arsenal, but we all know how that turned out.

A welcome development. The transfer ban is a blessing in disguise.

"Ridiculous", that's the word to describe it.

Yea, Bendtner ended a flop, even till this day.

Is there

Jaymaxxy:
The transfer ban. Eden Hazard's departure. Sarri's exit. All these could just be blessing in disguise for Chelsea. This is just an opportunity to rebuild the team and inject talented young bloods into the team. Maybe all these would make them realize how amazing their young academy boys are. They might not win silverwares but they would achieve so much at the long run if all these young lads are kept and allowed to develop.

IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN, RASHFORD FALLS WITHIN THIS AGE GRADE...BUT HE IS EATING 350 THOUSOUND POUNDS A WEEK. .,.OR WHAT OF DELIGT AT JUVENTUS?.... PLS STOP HATING... THAT AMOUNT IS MODERATE AND A BARGAIN FOR CHELSEA BASED ON THE CURRENT CONTRACT MARKET WHERE EVERYTHING IN INFLATED

Nice ... I just hope he doesn't become a Danny Welbeck

I am a big supporter of football and also used different resources to watch it online and to follow all the information. I also used https://1xbetaffiliates.net/en/ to know more about football teams, to bet on sport and also to entertain myself when I have some issues with it.

Hudson Odoi has seen how impressive Mount, Pulisic, Barkley, Kovacic, Kenedy, Abraham, Guehi, and other youngsters had been in the pre-season and he has finally given himself brain.
