BERLIN, Jan. 8 -- Bayern Munich's pursuit of Callum Hudson-Odoi is the latest example of German clubs seeking to snare promising talents developed by English Premier League outfits.
The race for youngsters raised in Britain is causing fierce competition among German clubs, with RB Leipzig also said to have joined the race for the youngster.
Signing young English talents who have found their paths to the first team blocked back home has become something of a trend in the Bundesliga for several reasons.
Thanks to a slew of lucrative TV deals, Premier League clubs have considerably more financial resources than those of other global football leagues, with most Bundesliga clubs unable to compete on the same level. But while this has increased the Premier League's attractiveness for top international stars, it makes it harder for young prospects to break through into the first team .
One notable example is Jadon Sancho, who has blazed something of a trail in the Bundesliga for English youngsters.
The 18-year-old has thrived since joining Borussia Dortmund in 2017 for seven million euros from Manchester City's youth team, being voted Bundesliga player of the month in October 2018 and receiving his first caps for England.
Sancho's success at Dortmund increases the pressure on their rivals to find their own Premier League bargain. And the Englishman's achievements may have reinforced Bayern's decision to pursue Hudson-Odoi, currently of Chelsea.
