卡倫˙哈德森奧多伊依然被高價轉會傳聞與拜仁慕尼黑聯繫在一起，他也承認他
更傾向於在頂級聯賽中獲得機會。

哈德森奧多伊正在努力複製隊友哈扎德、威廉和佩德羅的成功，但他沒有透露過
是否一定會留在斯坦福橋來實現這些目標，這位年僅18歲的藍軍青訓系統傑作正在面
臨著一個關乎職業生涯的艱難抉擇。


Goal 透露，在一月份冬季轉會窗口拜仁慕尼黑曾願意為他付出3500萬英鎊轉會
費，而且德甲巨人依然沒有放棄引進他的進程。


切爾西一直希望與這位前途無量的天才續約以打消其他俱樂部對他與日俱增的興
趣，但哈德森奧多伊選擇了現階段不與球隊續約，目前他全神貫注於充分挖掘自己的
潛力，並且希望追尋一些著名隊友的腳步。


哈德森奧多伊在接受《獨立報》採訪時表示：“更衣室裡的每個人都非常的謙遜
和真誠。沒人覺得自己高人一等，也沒有人狂妄自負。他們帶我融入球隊的體系，讓
我感受到了歡迎，沒有害怕或緊張。”


“我尊敬所有人，但我尤其期待與哈扎德、威廉和佩德羅一起訓練，因為我和他
們踢得是相同的位置。我努力訓練，嘗試著學習他們並且希望有朝一日可以達到他們
那樣的水平。”

雖然沒有透露是否打算在可預見的未來與偶像們長久成為隊友，但哈德森奧多伊
承認他在切爾西實現了夢想，這給了藍軍續約增添希望。


這位英格蘭U19國腳補充了他的經歷：“到目前為止我全部的人生都在這度過。
作為土生土長的倫敦人，在這樣小的年紀第一次穿上這件球衣完成首秀是一種奇妙的
感覺。”


“在更衣室裡看到自己的球衣讓我感覺到我是球隊的一員，這對我來說是美夢成
真。（當我在場上的時候）我只想盡可能多的得球，展現我的能力。我想我已經做到
了，我為自己感到高興。”


“（當我在歐聯盃對陣塞薩洛尼基的比賽中收穫處子球時）說實話我簡直不敢相
信這一切。當我看見歡呼雀躍的人群時，我沒想到是我進球了，我還以為是自己做錯
了什麼事，然後當我看到隊友們都跑向我，我才意識到我真的做到了，我真的為我的
球隊進了第一個球。對我和我的家人來說，這是一個值得驕傲的時刻。”

Callum Hudson-Odoi: 'I'm never nervous. I'm always ready, no matter what
the game holds for me'

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW - Tom Kershaw - 05 Mar 2019


In the early hours of Thursday morning, after the celebrations had settled
and supporters spilled from Stamford Bridge, Callum Hudson-Odoi steps from
behind a taxi's tinted glass into the glistening shadow of the Ritz.

Chelsea tracksuit swapped for a denim jacket and ripped black jeans, there
is an unmistakable aura to the 18-year-old as he slips into a cavernous
Mayfair nightclub for the launch party of GAFFER Magazine, a first foray
into London's glamour scene.


Inside, he flashes a smile in the direction of Crystal Palace's Aaron
Wan-Bissaka before lounging on a grand velvet sofa alongside musicians AJ
Tracey and Amelia Monet as waiters flit by invisibly with glasses of
champagne. Occasionally, he gets up for introductions and idle-dancing. He
carries himself with an air of calm, almost nonchalant, confidence. A
presence that perhaps even he doesn't yet know he possesses.


Over the course of the January transfer window, Hudson-Odoi morphed from
little-known talent to one of the world's most talked about teenagers.
Chelsea, his childhood club, rejected four bids, escalating to ￡40m, from
German champions Bayern Munich – a fee which would have made him the most
expensive teenage footballer in British history. A transfer request was
handed in and an unprecedented ￡85,000-per-week contract flatly refused.


And so now, if you follow football, you know Callum Hudson-Odoi. Within
the glamorous confines of this private party, greeted by famous faces and
fist-bumps, everyone knows him now too. From floodlight to camera flash,
the last days of anonymity gone. But, amid the swirl of stares and
speculation, Hudson-Odoi gives the impression that he is nothing but at an
unequivocal ease.


****

“I'm never nervous,” Hudson-Odoi says resolutely. “I'm always excited
to see what the game holds for me. I'm always ready, no matter what the
situation is.” Chelsea's prized starlet speaks quickly with barely a
breath's hesitation, a self-assurance to match the exhilarating bursts of
play which have enlivened crowds at Stamford Bridge this season.


Little over three months since his 18th birthday, it's only in the
teenager's continued references back to his parents that you are reminded
of his age. “Mum's cooking,” he laughs, breaking into a smile. “I'm
still living with my parents. I'll keep living with them until I think I'm
old and mature enough to leave.”


For a player of Hudson-Odoi's precocity, it is his family who have pushed
him beyond the realm of raw talent. His father, Bismark, was a
professional in Ghana with Accra Hearts of Oak. His brother, Bradley, was
already playing for Fulham's reserves by the time he was born. All their
highs and lows have been etched into the bedrock that's guided his rise.


“Every time my dad talks to me, I listen,” he says earnestly. “He's
been there, he knows what it takes, he's had to cut things out of his life
to play at the highest level. He's always been there, for every game, no
matter what, whether it's here or out of the country. He's got a certain
whistle, so I always know he's there. His advice helps me every day.”

“Before, he always used to shout. Run, work hard, do this, do that,” he
continues. “But, when I think about it now, what he said was true. You
have to do those things from when you're young to become a top player. It
influenced me to be who I am today.


“I've always had that mentality of working hard and proving to myself
that I'm capable. I've always tried to be better than everyone else, work
harder than everyone else. Even in the playground, I'd still run more than
everyone else just to prove I was the best….Obviously some people thought
'Nah, he's not going to do this, he's not at that level'. Hopefully, I'm
proving them wrong.”


There has also been Bismark's wider sense of stewardship that has
catapulted Hudson-Odoi into the promise of, as touted by teammate Willian,
“potentially becoming one of the best players in the world.”


It was raising him in the leafy southwest London borough of Wandsworth,
where he “never had any trouble or problems…. Where everyone knows each
other and there's a good community”. Becoming a member of Chelsea's
academy when he was just eight years old and being forced to juggle the
“tough” and “difficult” exchanges of school and training. Crucially,
it was also being pushed into trials at Whitgift, a prestigious sports
specialist school in South London, where Hudson-Odoi earned a bursary on
first impression.


At National Schools' Championships, and then in FA Youth Cups with Chelsea,
Hudson-Odoi single-handedly tore at the seams of the likes of Jadon
Sancho's Manchester City with a captivating combination of graceful
footwork and arresting speed which saw him hailed as one of the world's
most exciting young footballers.


A graduation which came full circle at the U17 World Cup in India 16
months ago. Away from home for over a month, cooped up in a hotel in
Kolkata, Hudson-Odoi featured in every one of England's games en route to
the landmark title.


“That was a big step up for me,” he says of the time without his dad by
his side. “Being away from home for a month was really difficult. I'd
never been away for that long before. It really helped to boost my
confidence.


“Representing England in front of 60,000 people, every time I went on the
pitch and looked around it felt like a dream.


“[After the final], I called my mum and dad straight away. I was like,”
he says, taking a rare pause for words. “I was just screaming,” he
laughs. “They were screaming, I was screaming. I couldn't believe it.”


****

There is also a genuine steel behind Hudson-Odoi's eager grin. An urgency,
at such a tender age, to propel himself into the gauntlet of the unknown
rather than remain harnessed in development. In his last six appearances,
he has scored three times and added as many assists. With every fleeting
minute on the pitch, his sense of youthful poise emboldens with the notion
that he is not only embracing expectation but thriving in its challenge.

Bayern Munich are still desperate to prise him from Chelsea. The club's
sporting director, Hasan Salihamidzic, has even been accused of “falling
in love” with the starlet. It's a fraught transfer saga that threatens to
meander beyond the summer. But underpinning Hudson-Odoi, there is
obviously a deep-rooted attachment to the club.


For ten years, he has spent the best part of his evenings at the club's
training ground. Just 15 minutes from where he grew up the crown of
Stamford Bridge is almost visible and symbolises a safety net, a second
family even. The highs and hardships of his childhood, from eight years
old to the brink of adulthood, all traceable and linked to his time there.
One from which severed ties would always leave something behind.


“I've been there throughout my whole life. Putting on the shirt for the
first time, being a homegrown player, at such a young age, making my debut
was an amazing feeling,” he says of becoming Chelsea's second youngest
player in history little over a year ago.


“Just seeing my shirt in the dressing room, it made me feel like a part
of the club. It was a dream come true. [Once I was on the pitch] I just
wanted to get on the ball as much as possible and show what I'm capable
of. I think now I've done that, I'm just delighted and pleased for
myself.”


Has he, beneath the blase demeanour, ever been taken aback by the sheer
speed of his rise? “[When I scored my first goal for the club in the
Europa League] I just couldn't believe it to be fair. As soon as I saw the
crowd screaming and jumping I didn't think it was a goal. I thought that
I'd done something wrong and then when everyone started coming round me I
realised… I'd actually done it… I'd actually scored my first goal for my
club. It was a proud moment for me and my family.”

Hudson-Odoi has inadvertently become a cult symbol of what Chelsea as a
club want to become. Supporters yearn for a new generation academy talent,
the type who can breathe life into a tiring and turbulent era. There is
also the suspicion that his teenage zeal, and even impatience, has
radiated to and rejuvenated the players around him.


“Everyone in the dressing room was very humble and genuine [when I came
in],” he says. “There was nobody who was bigger than anybody else, no
egos. They brought me into the system and made me feel welcome and to not
be scared or nervous, just myself.


“I look up to everyone, but I especially look forward to training with
[Eden] Hazard, Willian and Pedro especially because that's where I play. I
just keep working hard to try to emulate what they do and, hopefully, I
can be where there are one day.”


And that is the point of reckoning at which we have now arrived, a
decision to stay or go that will indelibly define his fledgeling career.
One which, you get the feeling, even he is yet to decide. But with the
world at his fingertips and a lingering gusto that assures nothing is out
of reach, Hudson-Odoi stands unconcerned, almost apathetic, to the burdens
upon him.


Nobody can be quite sure what the future holds, but there is the
unshakeable sense that here is a talent not only ready to take success in
his stride, but who gives guarantee that he will walk with it
hand-in-hand.
