Lampard: Hudson-Odoi can become the 'absolute best' if he follows Sterling's lead

The Blues youngster is already being tipped for great things but his manager has called upon him to emulate a rival for his work ethic

Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has said Callum Hudson-Odoi has the ability to become the "absolute best" if he can show the same work ethic of Manchester City's Raheem Sterling.

Sterling was considered a wonderkid, like Hudson-Odoi is now, when he made the £49 million move from Liverpool to Man City at just 20 years old in 2015.

Pep Guardiola has helped turned one of England's best talents into a clinical finisher and one of the Premier League's most important players in his time at the Etihad Stadium.
