Chelsea star Callum Hudson-Odoi discusses Ghana and England international future

Chelsea forward, Callum Hudson-Odoi has spoken again about his international future after winning the FIFA Club World Cup over the weekend.

The 21-year-old assisted Romelu Lukaku as the Premier League broke the deadlock in their 2-1 win over South American side, Palmeiras in extra time to become world champions.

Hudson-Odoi has now won the UEFA Champions League, Europa League and Club World Cup with Chelsea despite being so young.

Speaking in the aftermath of the victory against Palmeiras, he addressed speculations surrounding his international future.

Asked if he’ll be playing for England, rather than Ghana, at the 2022 World Cup, Hudson-Odoi said: “Hopefully. I don’t know. At the end of the day, we will wait until that time comes.”

Hudson-Odoi hasn’t played for the Three Lions in a long while and rejected a call-up after being relegated to England’s U-21s last year.

The winger, however, insists he is currently focusing on his club career and aims to finish the season strongly with Chelsea.

You want to win as much as possible with a club like this,” said Hudson-Odoi. “Our aim is always to win games and win as many as possible.

“If I went out in the summer I wouldn’t get opportunities to play like this and win trophies. I’m really delighted that I stayed and obviously I got the opportunity to play.

“For me, I’ve just got to give it 120 per cent from minute one every single game,” he added.
