Chelsea winger agrees personal terms with Fulham

Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi has agreed personal terms with Fulham over a summer transfer, according to Standard Sport.

The Blues graduate has lost his way over the past couple of years. He had a poor loan stint with Bayer Leverkusen last season.

He is now ready for a permanent challenge, and it is reported that he has accepted terms to join west London rivals Fulham.

However, a transfer is not straightforward with the Blues hoping to invite interest from Lazio to increase the player's valuation.

Fulham are currently willing to pay £15 million for him, but the Blues believe they could raise more if Lazio join the race.

Lazio boss Maurizio Sarri handed Hudson-Odoi with his breakthrough at Chelsea, and he remains an admirer of the Englishman.

The Serie A outfit are in a financially strong position after selling Sergej Milinkovic-Savic to Al Hilal for a fee of around £34m.

They could use part of the funds to land Hudson-Odoi, though the winger seems to prefer to continue in west London next term.
