Some news in from Germany, and it's not looking good for Chelsea's Callum Hudson-Odoi.

The winger made the bold decision to hand in a formal transfer request at the weekend, but German newspaper Bild is now reporting that Bayern Munich will not make a new offer for him after their latest bid was rejected.

Chelsea are insistent that they will not sell this month, according to the report, and while interest will hold until the summer, it makes Hudson-Odoi's situation at Stamford Bridge a fairly awkward one.
