Callum Hudson-Odoi

A more recent star Hudson-Odoi has exploded onto the scene this season and is rumored to already be on the fringes of the first team.  His athleticism coupled with fantastic technique and a two footed style of play make him a phenomenal prospect.

At 17 years of age the only issue thus far with Hudson-Odor is figuring out exactly what position is best for him moving forward.  He’s an unbelievably talented player and simply figuring out what would be the best place for him to play is going to be difficult moving forward.  He could very well be a striker or play as any of the attacking midfield positions or a winger.  He’s a very difficult player to place because of his undeniable talent.

Unlike many members of the Chelsea team he has not moved on loan yet and probably will in the future.  Chelsea should smartly move him someplace where his attacking potential will be nourished properly.  Hopefully on the Iberian peninsula.  It’s maybe early to say this but the players talent seems truly limitless at this point an edit would be a great move for him to play only first division football moving forward.

For what it’s worth it would be worth looking at the Brazilian Real Madrid prospect Vinicus Junior and acknowledging that Hudson-Odoi looks to be far superior already.
