DONE DEAL: CALLUM HUDSON-ODOI HAS AGREED PERSONAL TERMS WITH FULHAM

Callum Hudson-Odoi has agreed personal terms with Fulham ahead of a proposed move to the West London club.

After spending last season on loan in the Bundesliga with Bayer Leverkusen, Hudson-Odoi has returned to a Chelsea side in the midst of an overhaul under new boss Mauricio Pochettino.

The former Spurs boss has made clear that he sees no place for Hudson-Odoi in the first team picture at Stamford Bridge, and with just one year remaining on his deal at the club, a summer exit looks almost certain for the 22-year-old.

While his fellow Chelsea outcasts Romelu Lukaku, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and Hakim Ziyech have trained alone after being left out of the club's pre-season tour of the US, Hudson-Odoi has been preparing for the coming campaign by training alongside the club's under-21s.

According to a report from the Evening Standard, Hudson-Odoi has agreed personal terms for a move to Fulham.

With Marco Silva's once uncertain future now seemingly more clear following the collapse of his move to Saudi Arabia, the Cottagers are looking to begin preparations to push on. This is after a successful maiden season back in the top flight.

Rampant speculation regarding Silva's future appears to have hamstrung Fulham's transfer market activity thus far. The club has yet to bring in a single new arrival this summer. And while Silva's move to the Saudi Pro League may have broken down, last season's top scorer Aleksandar Mitrovic is reportedly determined that he will leave the club this summer amid Al Hilal's interest.

However, Fulham are not the only club aiming to secure Hudson-Odoi's signature before the window closes. Maurizio Sarri's Lazio are also said to have agreed terms with the former England international, with Chelsea reportedly preferring a move abroad for their academy graduate.

The talented and pacey winger was integral under Sari's regime. He made several appearances and scored some wonderful goals.
