Victor Moses has been told by Chelsea assistant manager Gianfranco Zola that 17-year-old teenage sensation Callum Hudson-Odoi is ahead of him to start.
Since the arrival of new manager Maurizio Sarri, Moses has not started any game in Chelsea colours which has left many supporters of the club bewildered.
The 27-year-old was a constant first-team player under former boss Antonio Conte but played in a more defensive role.
Ahead of the blues Carabao Cup game against Premier League rivals Liverpool, Zola praised the qualities of youngsters Odio and Ethan Ampadu who he stated been very much impressive.

He said, “Callum has done extremely well in pre-season, one of the players who impressed the most with Ethan Ampadu.
“They’re two players with bright futures. They are both in contention tomorrow, in the squad, and we will see.”
“We have a lot of players. We didn’t do a big pre-season, so these games can serve as a pre-season to give time for players like Christensen, about Cahill, an opportunity to get games.

“Callum and Ethan are the future of this club and we are going to take care of them.”
Zola then stated that Moses has not been playing due to the fact that a gifted youngster is preferred to him.
“Don’t forget that, when we played the Community Shield, he (Odoi) was in ahead of players like Victor Moses. If he hasn’t got the consideration of the value, we wouldn’t have done that.
“He is the future. But he’s in a very competitive team. He has to be patient, wait for his opportunities and, when they come, take them in the best way.”
