Premier League: Hudson-Odoi scores on Nottingham Forest debut to help salvage 1-1 draw against Burnley | Football News

Callum Hudson-Odoi marked his first Premier League appearance in 18 months with a goal to help Nottingham Forest rally for a 1-1 draw Monday at home against Burnley, which earned its first point of the campaign.
The 22-year-old former Chelsea player spent last season on loan at Bayer Leverkusen but served up a reminder of what he can do as he was Forest’s biggest attacking threat on his debut for his new team following a deadline-day move from Stamford Bridge.
He brought his side level with a curling effort in the second half after Zeki Amdouni had put Burnley ahead.
It was Burnley’s first point after three successive losses, but the visitors were denied a late winner VAR and finished the game with 10 men after Lyle Foster was sent off for elbowing Ryan Yates.
Having once been considered one of the brightest prospects in English soccer, with Bayern Munich among the teams reportedly interested in signing him, Hudson-Odoi is now looking to revive his career after Chelsea decided to let him go.
Forest manager Steve Cooper coached him when in charge of England’s Under-17 World Cup-winning team and has been quick to get him firing at his new club.Most Read
