Hudson-Odoi, 22, spent last season on loan at Bayer Leverkusen and he has been deemed surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge.

 

The winger has been subject to interest from Premier League outfits throughout this summer, with Fulham and Nottingham Forest being keen on securing his services.

 

 

 

Hudson-Odoi has also drawn interest from Italy in the shape of Lazio but it is now suggested that the Serie A side have given up their pursuit of the player.

 

Chelsea are said to have valued the outcast at £8m and it is claimed that Fulham are in advanced talks for the services of the winger.

 

 

The player has not travelled with the Blues to the club’s pre-season tour in the US and now it is said that he is keen on moving to Craven Cottage this summer.

 

Nottingham Forest are looking to strengthen their forward ranks in a bid not to get dragged into another relegation jostle next season.

 

 

With Hudson-Odoi now being eager to switch to Marco Silva’s side ahead of next season’s campaign, it remains to be seen who Nottingham Forest will chase as their target next.
