Callum Hudson-Odoi wants to move to Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich director Karl-Heinz Rummenige suggested that the club would continue its research on Callum Hudson-Odoi this summer.
Sky Sports News understands that Hudson-Odoi made a transfer request to Chelsea – which was rejected – following Bayern's fourth £ 35 million offer to force the club to go to the German champions .
Last month, Chelsea head coach Maurzio Sarri said that Bayern's public attack against the winger showed a lack of respect, two days after their sports director, Hasan Salihamidzic , confirmed the club's interest in Hudson-Odoi.

Hudson-Odoi remains eager to settle in Bayern and the German club does not seem to want to miss the 18-year-old.
"I guess Hasan (Salihamidzic) is a bit like Uli (Hoeness)," Karl-Heinz Rummenigge told Goal and Spox.
"We also had transfers in the past that did not work the first time but the second, and we are going to work on that now.
"Putting a marker costs money, we want the best players here in Bayern and Hasan is absolutely convinced of this player."

Bayern is ready for a summer of change with the future of Franck Ribery in doubt and Arjen Robben leaving the club at the end of the season.
Serge Gnabry, Kingsley Coman and Joshua Kimmich – all under the age of 24 – have been integrated into the first team in recent years and Rummenigge wants to strengthen the team with the youth.
"I'm not worried about Bayern's future, we already have a good team fighting for the championship and we will fight for it next year," Rummenigge said.
"We have already done the first phase of rebuilding by integrating young players like Kimmich, Gnabry or Coman, they are doing well this season, phase two will follow in the summer and then we'll see if we need a third phase."
