Callum Hudson-Odoi is being tracked by some of Europe’s top clubs

But he has edged out Ross Barkley and Mateo Kovacic to establish himself as a key member of Chelseas squad in their pursuit of a top-four spot.The Sun claim Stamford Bridge chiefs want to open talks about extending his stay in west London this summer.Team-mate Cesar Azpilicuetais adamant Loftus-Cheek will be a Chelsea star if he stays fit.He said: I have told him a lot of times that he needed to be fit. For a long time with Chelsea he wasnt able to play and train for a few weeks in a row. Hes come from Crystal Palace after having a good loan there. He came to Chelsea after the World Cup and the manager trusted him, but due to a few back problems he couldnt get the rhythm of being involved in the team every week.But since he has been doing this, we have seen an improvement, his confidence in space is very good. He is very strong.He is a good attacking midfielder that can attack the box and score goals. Im sure the only way he can go is up.
