Chelsea’s Callum Hudson-Odoi has underwent through a successful surgery after suffering a ruptured Achilles tendon.

The 18-year-old winger was taken off in the 41st minute of his side’s 2-2 draw with Burnley on Monday night.

Hudson-Odoi played 24 times this term and made his England debut in March.

He will miss Chelsea’s final three league games of the season, as they look to secure a Champions League spot by finishing in the top four, and the Europa League semi-final against Frankfurt, the first leg of which is on 2 May.

He will also be a serious doubt for England’s Nations League semi-final against the Netherlands on 6 June.

He has been linked with a move away from Chelsea in the summer after limited appearances in the early part of the season.

But he started four of Chelsea’s past six games and boss Maurizio Sarri said last month he expects Hudson-Odoi to stay at the club.

The youngster on Wednesday morning took to his personal twitter account to provide an update on his successful operation, and of course, thanked his fans for their unflinching support.

”Operation was Successful, Thank God always and thank you all for your messages and support,the return begins now!.”
