NOTTINGHAM FOREST stars have been stunned to learn that Callum Hudson-Odoi is only 22.<\/p>\n
Steve Cooper's side signed the winger from Chelsea in a \u00a33million deal on deadline day.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Hudson-Odoi has been getting to know his new team-mates… who can't believe how young he is.<\/p>\n
The England international made his Blues debut aged just 17 in January 2018.<\/p>\n
And despite having suffered with a serious achilles injury, he made 126 appearances for Chelsea – but has not played for them in the Premier League since January 2022.<\/p>\n
Following 21 outings on loan at Bayer Leverkusen last term, Hudson-Odoi decided to leave Stamford Bridge for good this summer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Reflecting on his early days at the City Ground, he told the Telegraph: "Everyone at Forest has been saying the same since I signed \u2013 it feels like I\u2019ve been around for a long time.<\/p>\n
"I\u2019ve been playing from a very young age in Chelsea\u2019s first team but I\u2019m not even 23 until November.<\/p>\n
"The journey has been up and down, a roller-coaster good and bad. Now I just want to make sure that my head is focused and I\u2019m ready for every game.<\/p>\n
"I\u2019ve experienced so much in a space of time but there\u2019s so much more to come. I\u2019ve got so many years ahead of me."<\/p>\n

It was a mutual agreement, but I\u2019d say it was more my decision.<\/p>\n "Forest is the right place for me to excel in my football, and do more than I probably could at Chelsea. I want to be playing as much as possible."<\/p>\n Hudson-Odoi made his first appearance in Nottingham Forest colours during a low-key 2-1 EFL Trophy defeat at Harrogate Town last week.<\/p>\n He could be in line for his senior debut this evening, as Forest take on Burnley in the Premier League.<\/p>\nGreenwood gets mixed reaction as he comes on to help side snatch win<\/h3>\n
