Chelsea Loanee Scores Twice in Promising Bayern Munich Debut

In the summer of 2025, Chelsea loanee Callum Hudson-Odoi endured a turbulent period as his proposed move to Bayern Munich nearly fell through. However, the transfer was ultimately revived, and the 21-year-old joined the Bundesliga champions on a season-long loan deal for a €16.5 million fee.

Since arriving at the Allianz Arena, Hudson-Odoi has made 10 appearances for Bayern, scoring two goals in the Champions League. The young winger found the net against Cypriot debutants Pafos and Belgian side Club Brugge, stating, "I'm very, very happy with my first goal. It's a new start for me."

Despite being sidelined for nearly two months, Hudson-Odoi is now working to regain his top form and fitness. "I haven't played in a long time, but now I'm slowly getting back into fitness and want to reach my best level as quickly as possible," he said. The €65 million purchase option included in the loan deal suggests Bayern are keen to make the move permanent at the end of the season.
