The Blues' teenage star hopes to be playing again in a few weeks after recovering from injury, handing his new boss a significant boost
After a mixed start to the Premier League season for Chelsea, Frank Lampard's side are set for a welcomed boost with Callum Hudson-Odoi nearing a return to action.
The 18-year-old attacker has been sidelined since April when he ruptured his Achilles in a 2-2 draw against Burnley.
It was an otherwise breakthrough season for Hudson-Odoi, who scored four times in the Europa League for the Blues as they went on to claim the title.
