Hudson-Odoi angry, Sun say

There continues to be speculation over the future of Callum Hudson-Odoi.

The Chelsea youngster made it clear he wanted to leave during last month’s transfer window when he was being pursued by Bayern Munich.

And The Sun say Paris St-Germain now want Hudson-Odoi and that he is furious about the way he has been treated by Maurizio Sarri since having a transfer request rejected.

Head coach Sarri has continued to overlook Hudson-Odoi, having previously suggested he regarded the player as being ready for the first team.
