Chelsea have ruled out Callum Hudson-Odoi leaving on-loan in January.
Hudson-Odoi is considering leaving Frank Lampard's side when the January transfer window opens in search of more regular first-team football, which will boost his chances of making it back into the England squad for next summer's Euro 2020 tournament.
The Athletic reports Chelsea are not even prepared to let him leave on loan at the turn of the year.
Hudson-Odoi has previously tried to leave in search of first-team football but the Blues stood firm and he signed a new contract after the arrival of Lampard as coach.
