Hudson-Odoi was born and raised in Wandsworth, Greater London. He is the second son of former Hearts of Oak Ghanaian midfielder Bismark Odoi and represents England at international level.
However, he can switch nationality due to FIFA’s new eligibility rules.
Players can switch national teams provided they were eligible to represent a second country at the time they first played for their first country, even if they have played in an official competition for the first nation.
This applies so long as they have played no more than three matches (including friendlies), none of the matches were in the final tournament of the FIFA World Cup or confederation competition, and they all happened before the player turned 21.
