Callum Hudson-Odoi’s true transfer fee leaves fans staggered after Chelsea ace was once linked with Bayern Munich

CHELSEA FANS have been left staggered after they found out how much their club really sold Callum Hudson-Odoi for.

Hudson-Odoi joined Nottingham Forest on deadline day and it was for far less than Bayern Munich previously offered.

The 22-year-old was once one of the most highly rated prospects in the country, but is no longer at the top of his game.

Back in 2020 when he had first made a name for himself at Chelsea, Bayern Munich tried to steal him away from The Blues in a deal worth a whopping £70million.

But just three years later and he is now leaving Stamford Bridge for the City Ground in a deal worth pennies in comparison.

The Telegraph has revealed that Forest have actually signed Hudson-Odoi for just £3million with £2m of potential add-ons.

It had first been said that the tricky winger would be leaving for £8million, but that was later corrected to the true fee.

And the bargain price tag has left Chelsea fans stunned – leading many of them to head to social media to voice their opinions on the matter.

One said: “Imagine he thrives now, £5m could be an absolutely insane deal.”

Another added: “This fee baffles me. Why so cheap?”

A third commented: “£5m, I’m crying.”

Whilst another fan joked that there must be a mistake with the numbers, they wrote: “I think you missed out a zero there.”

Hudson-Odoi burst on to the scene back in the 2019/2020 when he was playing regular minutes for Chelsea.

He even earned himself a call-up to the England squad and was capped three times for the Three Lions.

But his playing time began to dry up and after struggling to get minutes he spent last season on loan in Germany with Bayer Leverkusen.

Even there he had a hard time getting on the pitch as he made just 14 league appearances all season registering one assist and failing to score a goal.

There will be high hopes for the Englishman in Nottingham as Forest look to improve on their 16th place Premier League finish last season.

The Tricky Trees had a busy deadline day which saw them sign an incredible SEVEN players including Divock Origi and Nuno Tavares.
