The Blues boss is facing more and more questions about starting the 18-year-old, as the Premier League returns this weekend
Maurizio Sarri believes that Callum Hudson-Odoi has the ability to make his first Premier League start soon, but insisted that making an impact against sub-standard international opponents is not an indicator of future success in the Premier League.
Hudson-Odoi debuted for England off the bench against Czech Republic over the international break, before making his first start against Montenegro, as Gareth Southgate's team started their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign with two wins.
The 18-year-old put in strong showings in both games, forcing an own goal against the Czechs before looking dangerous in a 5-1 win over Montenegro.
