Chelsea are willing to listen to offers for winger Callum Hudson-Odoi, according to the Daily Telegraph‘s Matt Law.
The 20-year-old is one of four players that the Blues will consider offloading before the transfer window closes, along with Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Tammy Abraham and Marcos Alonso:

Supporters on Twitter are very surprised by this update from a trusted journalist, with many not willing to accept that the club are prepared to sell the England international:
We will be down to one traditional winger if we sell CHO .. that’s ridiculous

I think Hudson Odoi is not for sale

Why does Chelsea keep putting CHO in the market every window?

That’s really bad policy ,very short sighted but typically Chelsea. Hudson odoi loftus cheeks Abraham all good enough. These players would more than flourish elsewhere . Just because you can buy it doesn’t mean you should have to when you already have answer to proposed problems

Why on earth would you want to sell CHO?

Anyone but odoi

It is clear that Chelsea are trying to fund some of their purchases this summer by raising money through player sales. If they do make an offer for Erling Haaland, or even Romelu Lukaku, the finances have to come from somewhere.
You can’t see many fans complaining if Hudson-Odoi’s departure were to pave the way for Haaland’s arrival but that scenario seems like a stretch currently. We’ll just have to wait and see how things progress in the coming weeks.
