England manager Gareth Southgate has got himself involved in the potential transfer saga involving Chelsea wonderkid Callum Hudson-Odoi amid links with Manchester United.
The 18-year-old has enjoyed a fine breakthrough season for Chelsea this term, though it’s widely understood he wants more first-team opportunities.

Linked with Bayern Munich in January, it now looks like Manchester United are reportedly joining the running for Hudson-Odoi this summer.
The England international could well get more opportunities at Old Trafford, with United, particularly under current manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, more well known for trusting and developing young players.
Both he and England team-mate Jadon Sancho have been linked with United as they eye new attacking players to replace Alexis Sanchez, but Southgate has suggested the teenager should stay at Chelsea.
