Olise is currently recovering from a hamstring injury he picked up on international duty over the summer and will not be available in the short term for either Chelsea or Palace as he continues his rehabilitation after surgery.
When asked if he was confident that Olise will stay at Palace, Hodgson told Sky Sports: “No one knows really at this moment in time. If there are clubs who are desperately or seriously preparing a bid and tempting him away then he’ll have a decision to make.
“I can only wait and see if there are clubs who are going to come in and make those bids and tempt him away, and in that situation what decision is he going to make, because he also knows that we are really very keen to keep him here. But unfortunately, these matters are totally out of my hands – everything will depend I suppose on what happens in the future.”
