Bayern Munich are set to renew their inters in Chelsea’s Callum Hudson-Odoi.
Back in 2019 the Bundesliga champions made three unsuccessful bids to sign him, but failed to meet the West London club’s valuation of the winger, and he was eventually persuaded to sign a new five-year deal.
Last summer they tried again, with Chelsea reportedly turning down a loan move for the England international with an option to buy of £70 million.
However, Bayern retain an interest in him and are ready to try an d sign the 20-year-old again, with indications that this time Chelsea are willing to listen to offers for him.
The Champions League winners have multiple attacking options at their disposal, and may be set to add to them with reports they may be about to make a formal approach to sign Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund.
They are expected to clear the decks to make room for potential new arrivals and Hudson-Odoi may be one of the names ear-marked for departure.
