Chelsea star Callum Hudson-Odoi has finally opened up on why he turned down a call-up to play for England’s U21 team.
Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi has rejected the accusation of snubbing England with a plan of switching nationality to play for Ghana.
The midfielder, whose father is a former Ghana international, has been at the center of a battle between England and Ghana with the latter keen on getting him to switch nationality to play for the Black Stars.
The Chelsea player can switch nationality to play for the Black Stars because his parents are from the West African country and heightened talks of such a move by snubbing call-ups to the England U21 squad.
“I didn’t go to England because I thought I was bigger than they or I was being big time or anything like that,” he told the Daily Mail.
“It was just me trying to get back into the team in Chelsea and focusing on club football as much as possible: to be a regular player, an option to always play and be involved.
