'I'm enjoying my football': Hudson-Odoi speaks on difficult time at Chelsea, move to Leverkusen

Callum Hudson-Odoi says he is enjoying his football at the moment on loan at Bayer Leverkusen from Chelsea.

He said, "At the end of the day it’s not up to me. I can only do what I can do now for the club and push myself to the max here and give everything I can. We don’t know what will happen from now to the end of the season. Right now I’m just focusing on playing as much football as possible and trying to help the team.”

“Coming out here, my aim was to get as many games as possible and build on the fitness that I haven’t really had in the past couple of seasons for Chelsea. I think game wise, I’ve been playing a lot here and I’m really enjoying it.

“You want to enjoy every minute of it, you want to be trying to help the team as much as possible, scoring goals and assisting goals. Even if it’s not scoring goals, it’s just being influential in the team. I’m definitely enjoying my football at the moment and I think it was the right move at the right time of my career to come here.”

Hudson-Odoi has been with the Blues from youth level but moved up to the senior team in 2019 with his first professional contract now running until 2024. 

He struggled for game time in the last couple of seasons before moving to Germany on loan last summer.

At Bayer, the attacker has started four of the club's five matches - registering an assist.

It remains to be seen if he will return to Stamford Bridge at the end of the season, especially with Graham Potter now in charge.
