Hudson-Odoi was Bayern's primary target in the summer.
It was a pretty disappointing transfer window for Bayern Munich as they could not make any significant signings. It's believed that Bayern was in the market for just one player who is Callum Hudson-Odoi from Chelsea.

The Bundesliga side made many approaches for the youngster, but Chelsea refused to give in and even countered their offer on several occasions. Hudson-Odoi looked for more game time and wanted to play in the Bundesliga which has become a developmental platform for the youngsters.
Bayern were confident of landing the 18-year-old with the player himself handing in a transfer request at Chelsea. However, Maurizio Sarri admired Callum and didn't want to let him leave in the middle of the season.
With players like Robben, Ribery going out at the end of the campaign, Hudson-Oodi would get sufficient game time if he moves to Allianz Arena in the summer.

A sports enthusiast and an avid follower of football.
Since childhood I was encouraged to play cricket and in no time it became a hobby. Gradually I found interest in other sports also.
Football is in my blood and I love the electrifying ambiance that surrounds it. I often watch the pre and post match analysis of a match and try to learn how to analyze a football game.
The thing that intrigues me the most is that there are so many things happening behind the scenes that are oblivious to our naked eyes. The technological advancements that has been made are phenomenal.
I like analyzing a game from a statistical point of view. Being a data guy myself , I am firm believer of providing insights through facts and data. Though a game is always unpredictable , analyzing it from different dimensions can provide some very interesting conclusions.
