But Chelsea are making one last ditch effort to prevent Hudson-Odoi from leaving Stamford Bridge this month by offering an eye-watering new contract that would put him on a par with the planet’s most talented youngsters.

Sportsmail understands the club are willing to offer Hudson-Odoi a new deal worth a minimum of £50,000-per-week, rising to as much as £70,000-per-week if he meets certain targets.

Hudson-Odoi, who grew up in Wandsworth, currently earns in the region of £22,000-per-week.

The deal underlines how determined Chelsea are about keeping their academy star at the club.

Hudson-Odoi comes from a footballing family, his father Bismark played for Ghanian side Heart of Oak while brother Bradley was once on Fulham’s books.

His father and brother both play a key role in managing his career.
