Arsenal and Chelsea are said to be interested in Wolfsburg defender David Odogu.
According to Daily Mail, the talented teenage defender has recently been watched by London clubs. It remains to be seen whether they will pursue him in the future months.
The 17-year-old has a tremendous talent with a bright future ahead of him, but he must play consistently to continue his growth.

At this point in his career, a move to Arsenal or Chelsea might not be ideal. They will be unable to give him regular first-team opportunities, hence he is better suited staying at Wolfsburg.
The German club has great hopes for him and plans to offer him a professional deal when he turns 18 in June. If he can continue his growth by playing regular football for a Bundesliga club, he will have numerous chances.
Arsenal and Chelsea will undoubtedly be appealing places for him. Both teams have a strong record of nurturing great young players. It will be interesting to observe how things progress over the next few months. The two teams have the financial clout to make an attractive offer to Wolfsburg as well.
Along with William Saliba and Jurrien Timber, Arsenal requires extra depth in central defense. With the right guidance, Odogu has the potential to develop into a solid first-team player for them. He could be the ideal long-term replacement for Thiago Silva at Chelsea.
