Hudson-Odoi was taken into police custody while the woman was transported to hospital before officers returned to the England international's residence to continue their investigation.

A police spokesman said: "Police and London Ambulance Service were called at 03.53 a.m. on Sunday, May 17 to a report of an unwell woman."

Chelsea declined to comment when contacted by ESPN this morning but the club are likely to seek a detailed explanation from Hudson-Odoi given the ongoing lockdown measures imposed by government in response to the coronavirus pandemic.

Hudson-Odoi was one of the first footballers in the UK to test positive for COVID-19 in March and is due to return to group training this week if the Premier League vote to accept safety protocols determined by discussions between clubs, players, medical experts and government.
