  • Hudson-Odoi has impressed in sporadic outings for Chelsea, and his Stamford Bridge future remains unclear.

    Chelsaea youngster Callum Hudson-Odoi was included in the starting line-up as new boss Maurizio Sarri named his first competitive team to take on Manchester City in the Community Shield.

    Hudson-Odoi, who has shot through the youth ranks of Chelsea and starred in England’s win at last year’s Under-17 World Cup, has impressed in pre-season and has been handed his chance with Willian and Eden Hazard late back from the World Cup.

    Hudson-Odoi will line up in a front three including Pedro and Alvaro Morata, while Ross Barkley is another man to get his chance for the Blues after making just four appearances since his move from Everton a year ago.

    New signing Jorginho, who has followed Sarri from Napoli, will also take to Wembley from the start.
