Chelsea may change stance if Bayern commit to permanent deal
Lampard says after win against Palace he wants to keep winger

Chelsea have turned an offer from Bayern Munich for Callum Hudson-Odoi, rejecting the German side’s attempt to land the winger in a deal worth £70m.

Bayern’s offer was for Hudson-Odoi to join them on loan for the rest of the season and contained an option to buy for £70m next summer. Chelsea’s decision to reject the bid leaves the European champions with a short timeframe to decide whether to try again before the transfer window shuts on Monday. It is believed Chelsea could agree to the move if Bayern return with a loan bid that contains an obligation to make the deal permanent next summer.
