Bayern Munich CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has revealed that Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi was the only player the club truly wanted to sign in the January transfer window.
The Bavarians lodged several bids at the Blues' door for the 18-year-old, the highest of which was believed to be £35m. However, the Premier League side were not to be moved, even when the player himself issued a formal transfer request in order to push through the move.
Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, as quoted by FourFourTwo, Rummenigge revealed the disappointment of everyone at the club, but especially sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic, at the inability to get a deal over the line.
