Speculation has it that Bayern Munich wanted to sign him in the January transfer window due to lack of playing time under Maurizio Sarri while Chelsea is planning to keep the young talented footballer. Hudson is now planning to force his way out of the club in search of more playing time has he recently rejected a contract worth £85,000 per week. Chelsea is not ready to listening to any bid now as Bayern has submitted another request worth £35m for the young star.
Chelsea as a club are well known for not giving their young players the chance to play more matches and that has led to the club loosing many of their young talented players like Nathan Ake, Bertrand, piazon, Josh and others while many are been sent out on loan.

Millwall vs Everton (3-2)
It wasn't a good outing for Everton in the FA cup as they lost dramatically to Millwall at home in the fourth round. Richarlison put the host in front in the 43 minutes before Gregory canceled out the lead some seconds to the half break. Cenk Tosun restored the lead for the visitor in the 72minutes and Millwall also responded well by equalizing back in the 75 minutes through cooper in a controversial goal before wallace stunned the visitor in the additional 4 minutes of the 90 minutes.
Everton since 1995 remain without a trophy as Millwall proceed to the next round of the competition. Everton were able to manage just 3 shots on target against a team sitting on the 19th position in the championship despite their manager naming a strong squad for the encounter. Cooper was believe to have scored Millwall second goal with his hand but referee Michael Oliver allowed the goal after consulting his assistance referee. Cooper after the match;
My arm was alongside my body but you would have to give every penalty that hit your arm if you are going to pull that up.
"We'll take that and luckily we got the winner
Millwall was luck the match was not at Goodison Park because every premier league ground had a VAR and that will have ruled out the goal scored by cooper. Two of Millwall goals has come in the late minute of every half which shows that Everton need to work on their defensive line.
Good result for Millwall as they will be hosting Rotherham United on February 3 in a championship match because the win against Everton will go a long way in boosting the performance in their next game while Everton must wake up from there slumber when they take on Huddersfield another club from the bottom table in the league on Tuesday away from home.
