# Juventus to rival Bayern Munich in race for Callum Hudson-Odoi

Italian giants Juventus are reportedly weighing up a move for Chelsea youngster Callum Hudson-Odoi, according to [Calciomercato](https://www.calciomercato.com/news/hudson-odoi-il-bayern-ci-prova-ma-il-chelsea-vuole-40-milioni-e--99853#comments-box), cited by [football.london](https://www.football.london/premier-league/transfer-news-live-arsenal-suarez-15632785).

The 18-year-old, who is attracting interest from German outfit Bayern Munich, has just 18 months left on his current contract at Stamford Bridge.

Bayern have reportedly had two offers knocked back by the Blues over the past 10 days, with Chelsea holding out for £40 million for the English midfielder.

Juventus, who are thought to be close to signing Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey on a pre-contract agreement, are thought to be monitoring Hudson-Odoi’s situation, with the Italian leaders hoping the youngster’s price will drop.

The teenager, who opened his goalscoring account for the season in the Blues’ 4-0 Europa League victory against PAOK in November, has impressed current boss Maurizio Sarri over the past few months.

The England under-19 international made his first Premier League appearance for the club in the Boxing Day win over Watford, however, Hudson-Odoi hasn’t featured since due to a hamstring problem, with the youngster recently returning to full training.
