Borussia Dortmund Tipped to Rival Bayern Munich in Chase for Chelsea Starlet Callum Hudson-Odoi

Chelsea could face a new obstacle in their efforts to keep teenage starlet Callum Hudson-Odoi after Borussia Dortmund have seemingly joined Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich in pursuit of the 18-year-old winger, who has been called up to the senior England squad this month.

Bayern failed with multiple bids to sign Hudson-Odoi in January, the largest of which reportedly reached around £35m. Now, Dortmund have been tipped to try their luck in the event that Jadon Sancho - an £80m target for Manchester United - is sold this summer.

According to the Daily Mirror, Dortmund are eyeing Hudson-Odoi as a possible replacement for Sancho, with the Chelsea starlet seemingly perfect for their model of player development.
