According to Chelsea gaffer Thomas Tuchel, Callum Hudson-Odoi will have to go on a run of 250 convincing performances to prove he deserves a starting spot. Furthermore, Tuchel denied that the Blues' upcoming fixtures will seal the deal for the 20-year-old winger, who was unstoppable against Norwich City last night.

Here's what he said:

"The only person who can decide this and answer this question is Callum. It’s as easy as that. Is there a turning point? OK, he needs to prove it. He needs to play the next 250 games on the highest level and then that was the turning point. But is it a turning point if he does a brilliant match tomorrow? No."

He further added: "It’s only a turning point if he makes it a turning point – and only if he does not only do one good match, one good half, 60 good minutes, but if he does it consistently, it’s as easy as that with every player."

The Chelsea gaffer revealed how good performances will earn Hudson-Odoi more playing time. He reiterated how the English forward needs to earn and deserve his spot in the playing XI, and that Tuchel will be there to support him.

Hudson-Odoi has made just two appearances in the league this season. However, his chances of starting for Chelsea have improved because of injuries in the Blues' attack.
