Lampard responds to Bayern Munich move for Hudson-Odoi, says “Bayern might have declared their interest”

Frank Lampard admitted he cannot say for certain that Callum Hudson-Odoi will not make a deadline-beating move to Bayern Munich.

The Chelsea chief insists Hudson-Odoi, who made his first Prem start of the season in yesterday’s 4-0 win over Crystal Palace, is a key part of his plans.

Yet Bayern also declared their interest in the England attacker and are desperate to sign him.

Hudson-Odoi, 19, only signed a five-year deal at the Blues 12 months ago and Lampard will hold talks with him before tomorrow’s deadline.

Lampard said: “There is no definitive answer — by Monday we will know the answer.

“Bayern might have declared their interest, which is one thing, but Callum is absolutely part of my plans.

“What Callum wants comes into consideration. He is our player and everything has to be right for everyone.”
