The 19-year-old insists he has now fully recovered from his coronavirus scare which he though was a ‘minor temperature’ at first.

Hudson-Odoi has claimed he didn’t feel too bad while suffering with the virus which put him into self-isolation for 14 days.

Thankfully he had a WhatsApp group chat with his team-mates to keep his sprits up while he was fighting off Covid-19.

On Chelsea’s website the Blues starlet said: “‘I am feeling perfect. I had the virus which has cleared now, I fully feel good, fit, so I am feeling back to myself so it is all good.

“I had it (the illness) three weeks ago now I think, on a Monday when I felt a bit hot and I was thinking this is a bit unusual, why do I feel this hot?

“The next day I was feeling back to normal. I thought it was just a minor temperature thing but obviously it wasn’t.

“I said to myself this wasn’t actually that bad, the symptoms, and I said to myself I feel good, I feel better.”

The 19-year-old added: “Everyone has been asking me how I have been which has been class from them.

“They have been showing me support and saying Cal, get well soon, I hope you are okay now.

“It has been very warming and a good feeling to know you have got your team-mates behind you, backing you and making sure you are feeling well and encouraging you.”

Football across Europe remains on standby due to the coronavirus criss with campaigns possibly finishing throughout the summer.

Another 563 people have died in the UK after testing positive for the killer virus – bringing the total number of deaths to 2,352.

Hudson Odoi admits he is itching to get back on the pitch but says the league should only be resumed once it is safe for everyone involved and has urged people to stay safe indoors.

He said: “‘Everything is happening so fast and I did not know this virus would be such a major thing and so big in the world and affect so many people.
“Everyone has to be careful and judge things how they go and hopefully the virus will go soon and everyone will be back to normal.

“I want the football to come back as soon as possible, I’d want it to come back today if it could but this thing (pandemic) is growing and it is going to keep growing so the thing is we want everyone to stay safe and stay well.

“We want to be out there playing football and we want to enjoy what we are doing and we want the fans to be enjoying everything with us.”

The attacker has scored three and provided five assists in 25 matches this season under Frank Lampard.
