Tottenham are reportedly eyeing a summer move for Callum Hudson-Odoi, which could prove to be a big financial opportunity for Nottingham Forest.
According to Paul O Keefe, Tottenham are keen on Callum Hudson-Odoi following an impressive debut season with Nottingham Forest. The former Chelsea academy graduate could be on the move once again if the Spurs have a concrete interest, which could become a significant financial opportunity for Forest.
Tottenham eyeing a move for Callum Hudson-Odoi
Chelsea decided to sell Callum Hudson-Odoi after the former academy graduate endured a terrible season on loan with Bayer Leverkusen. The winger got his chance to stay in the Premier League, as Nottingham Forest paid a modest fee to take him off Chelsea’s books.
Hudson-Odoi has proved he can become the big player everyone expected him to be and why Bayern Munich wanted him a few years ago. The winger scored eight goals this season, which certainly helped Forest avoid relegation.
Tottenham are now interested in Hudson-Odoi ahead of the summer, as Postecoglou would like a new winger in place during the summer. Spurs are eager to find a new wide man because they are still determining Timo Werner’s future and could decide not to take up their buy-option after a mildly successful loan spell since January.
They could view Hudson-Odoi as an option to replace the German, as the winger could also become economically viable for them or anyone else in the window. Now, all eyes will be on Nottingham Forest’s demands for the winger, as the Midlands club will certainly demand a strong fee.
Hudson-Odoi is a financial opportunity for Forest
Hudson-Odoi’s move to Forest involved a modest fee, and he has performed at a very high level that could have improved his value exponentially. As per Transfermarkt, the winger has a market value of €15 million, which would be five-fold the fee Forest paid last summer.
Forest will demand a good enough fee to ensure they make a substantial profit from the sale, which would be essential considering their financial troubles during the campaign. Forest was docked points after they breached PSR rules, which makes sales essential in the upcoming summer window.
