CHELSEA have told winger Callum Hudson-Odoi that he could be loaned out this season after the signing of Kai Havertz, according to reports.
The England winger could struggle for game-time after the Blues brought in a number of new players this summer.

Chelsea’s £72million signing Havertz has joined Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner this summer in an exciting attacking trio that could keep Hudson-Odoi struggling for first-team action.
And according to 90min, Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has told the wide man that he could be sent out on loan.
Hudson-Odoi started just seven Premier League games last season, after recovering from an achilles injury.
But his manager is said to have questioned his attitude and performances in training this summer.
The report continues that Lampard had already had concerns that Hudson-Odoi’s lack of form was down to a poor attitude.
Hudson-Odoi earned rave reviews from his manager after signing a lucrative long-term contract, after Bayern Munich had made a bid to sign him.
However, it is believed to realise his potential he may have to go on loan for more game-time experience, especially given he’s struggling to convince Lampard in training.
Hudson-Odoi managed 33 appearances in all competitions last season, scoring three goals and assisting six.
Most of those came during the opening few weeks of the season.
However, he could be included in the opener against Brighton on Monday with Ziyech ruled out with a knee injury.
