Exclusive: Juventus plan to challenge Bayern Munich for Chelsea starlet

Calciomercato exclusively understand that Juventus have begun to monitor the situation of Chelsea youngster Callum Hudson-Odoi, with Bayern Munich desperate to sign him and the player wanting to leave.

Bayern have been intent on signing the youngster this summer and have had two offers rejected for him. But the Bavarians have already made a third offer, with the Blues holding out for about 40 million euros.

Nicola Balice understands that Juventus are keeping a close eye on the situation of the player, who wants to leave Stamford Bridge at the earliest possible chance.

Juve are trying to understand what the cost could be, but they know that Chelsea will demand a very high fee for the player. It is keeping them away, for the time being. But they aren't out of the race as yet.

Borussia Dortmund are also interested in the player, but the asking price will be too much for them as well. 

Despite that, the bianconeri haven't given up on a possible deal yet. They know the player wants the move away from Chelsea, who want to keep him since Maurizio Sarri believes he is coming closer to the first team.

Fabio Paratici is lurking in the shadows, waiting for the right time to challenge Bayern Munich.
