Chelsea to block Hudson-Odoi transfer to Dortmund

Chelsea is trying to prevent their defense from weakening.

Following the failure of

Chelsea

to sign Jules Kounde and Saul Niguez, they intend to prevent the separation of Callum Hudson-Odoi.

Chelsea tried to loan Saul out and sign him next year for € 40 million. The 26-year-old midfielder was also keen to move to Stamford Bridge. In the case of Kounde, Sevilla was reluctant to negotiate the transfer and remained firm at € 65 million to sell their defender. Kourt Zuma, meanwhile, has recently joined West Ham from Chelsea and Blues' defense has become weaker than before, and they were looking for a replacement for the French defender.

Although Chelsea can sign Kounde using his release clause, it is unlikely that this will happen before the end of the transfer window, and they will try to satisfy Sevilla with a lower figure until then. In such a situation, Chelsea intend to stop the loan transfer of Callum Hudson-Odoi to Dortmund and if he fails to sing Kounde, he will keep Hudson-Odoi in his squad. There are similar circumstances for Ruben Loftus-Cheek, whose separation also depends on Saul's acquisition.

Ethan Ampado will also stay at Chelsea, and his place in the squad depends on Kounde's progress.
