Bayern Munich will make a fresh bid to sign Callum Hudson-Odoi from Chelsea in April, according to a report from The Daily Mail.
The Bavarian outfit attempted to lure the 18-year-old away from Stamford Bridge throughout the January transfer window but saw their efforts rebuffed, with the Blues refusing to sanction his departure.
Hudson-Odoi was reportedly keen to make the switch to Germany, with first-team football eluding him at Chelsea.
However, despite Bayern being willing to splash £35 million on signing the winger, Maurizio Sarri’s club continued to dig their heels in and reject any advances.
This does not appear to have deterred Niko Kovac’s pursuit of the player, though, and The Daily Mail is reporting that a new bid is on the cards ahead of April.
Hudson-Odoi is believed to be prepared to wait until next year’s January transfer window to make the move to Bayern, with his contract in London expiring in the summer of 2019.
The youngster finds himself behind Eden Hazard, Pedro and Willian in the pecking order of wingers under Sarri but could feature as Chelsea prepare for their FA Cup fifth-round clash with Manchester United on Monday night.
After starting in the previous two rounds of the competition, Hudson-Odoi will be itching to make his mark in a game of immense magnitude for Chelsea.
