The 22-year-old winger has not travelled with the Chelsea squad to the United States as he seeks to move on from Stamford Bridge this summer.
Chelsea are keen to move him off their wage bill and with only a year left on his contract, they are keen to secure a fee from his sale in the ongoing transfer window.
Nottingham Forest are interested in signing the winger this summer with Fulham also said to be keen on taking him to Craven Cottage ahead of the new season.
And it has been claimed that a desire to stay in London is likely to help Fulham in their bid to sign Hudson-Odoi.
The importance of being in the English capital has already helped Fulham to beat Nottingham Forest to the signature of Willian despite offering a shorter contract on less money.
The Chelsea winger is also claimed to be keen on staying in London even after he leaves Stamford Bridge.
And it seems Nottingham Forest could be set to lose out one more target to Fulham due to geographical reasons, unless they can convince him to snub a stay in the capital.
