Bayern Munich have drawn their January pursuit of Chelsea’s teenage winger Callum Hudson-Odoi to an apparent close, according to head coach Niko Kovac.

The Bundesliga champions had been heavily linked with a move for the 18-year-old after he reportedly grew dissatisfied at his lack of chances under Maurizio Sarri and Stamford Bridge.

However, Bayern boss Kovac has now indicated that there will be no move for Hudson-Odoi this month, signalling that his side have completed their business for the window.

“We will no longer be active in the transfer market,” the coach told a press conference on deadline day.

“The teams do not want to let their players leave. We have a good and big squad.

“Franck [Ribery] and Arjen [Robben] have been training, so I have to leave one, two at home anyway. That's why it does not make sense for us to get three or four more players.”

Bayern will look to stay in touch with leaders Borussia Dortmund, who hold a six-point advantage over Kovac’s side, when they travel to Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday. (Goal)
