Everton: Fans want Callum Hudson-Odoi as he may leave Chelsea

Many Everton fans have urged the Merseyside club to sign Callum Hudson-Odoi as The Independent have reported that the Chelsea ace may consider offers to leave Stamford Bridge in the upcoming summer transfer window.

As per the outlet, Hudson-Odoi has apparently become frustrated with the lack of time that he is getting on the pitch under Frank Lampard, playing just 48 minutes since the restart of the 2019/20 Premier League season, according to Transfermarkt.

Indeed, it could well be a good time for Carlo Ancelotti to pounce, whether it would be to potentially sign the 19-year old on a loan deal or even on a permanent basis if the price is right.

Hudson-Odoi has supplied more assists in the Premier League so far in this campaign than Alex Iwobi, Theo Walcott and Bernard, and has also averaged more dribbles, crosses and long balls than the Toffees wingers (via Whoscored).

Whether the Toffees react to this news with any particular interest is another question, but these Everton supporters expressed their praise for Hudson-Odoi on Twitter, with one fan even branding him as a ‘phenomenal talent’:

I’d take him, as you say bags of potential, however not a natural right sided winger, whether Gordon or richarlison could play there long term is another matter, I think for the winger position if we were to get anyone it would be a left footed right winger

I like a loan with option to buy. If he ends up living up to potential we could end up getting a good deal in the end
