Chelsea forward Callum Hudson-Odoi has received a customised jersey of Ghanaian football side, Accra Hearts of Oak.

The jersey was a special one made for the Chelsea star and was presented to him by the supporters. 

The 20-year-old arrived in the country last Wednesday after helping Chelsea win the Champions League trophy against Manchester City and was welcomed by Ghanaian musician King Promise and some of his family members residing in Ghana.

On Friday, he featured in an exhibition game organized by his friend King Promise at the Sakumono Queensland AstroTurf in Accra where he scored three goals and provided an assist.
 
On Sunday, he decided to have a watch of one of Ghana's top-flight championship games and he chose to witness no other match than the Ga mashie derby, which ended 1-1 between Great Olympics and Hearts of Oak.
 
Hudson-Odoi is the son of former Hearts of Oak midfielder Bismark Odoi.

Hudson-Odoi picked England ahead of Ghana for his international career but the Chelsea man is still eligible to play for Ghana after FIFA changed their rules around international representation last year.

According to new laws, he can switch allegiance because he has not played more than three senior matches for England and all the games had come before he turned 21.
