USMNT star Christian Pulisic is set to leave Chelsea this summer, and several clubs are already standing in line for his services. According to ESPN’s Mark Ogden, Seria A powerhouse Juventus is currently considered the favorite to sign Pulisic, and the move is expected to happen sooner than later.

Pulisic will reportedly be available for a discount price of just £20 million. The London club previously paid £58 million to sign the 24-year-old American from Borussia Dortmund in 2019.

Juventus are looking for ways to improve their squad without spending too much money, considering that they won’t play UEFA Champions League next season. Pulisic seems like a perfect candidate since he still has a big upside despite his failure to make an impact in Premier League.

The only thing standing in the way of Pulisic’s transfer is the player’s wages. He is one of the highest-paid Chelsea players and would need to take a significant pay cut in order to play in Italy.

Chelsea, on the other hand, wants to trim down their squad as they look to return to the top of the Premier League under new manager Mauricio Pochettino. Besides Pulisic, several other players are set to depart the club, including Hakim Ziyech and Mateo Kovacic.

Christian Pulisic will leave Chelsea, having scored 26 goals and added 21 assists in 145 games in all competitions. He won three trophies during his time in London, including the UEFA Champions League trophy in 2020-21.

Chelsea manager Graham Potter has confirmed that his team has no intention of letting United States midfielder Christian Pulisic leave the club during the January transfer window. This comes after reports suggesting that Manchester United and Newcastle expressed interest in the player.

“No chance [of Pulisic leaving], no,” Potter told reporters. “There was never any consideration of anything about that anyway but he’s a couple of months [out]. He’s disappointed [to be injured] but he’s optimistic that he can come back quicker than the two months so he’s in that phase where he’s just trying to keep his fingers crossed and hopefully his rehab goes well.”

Having started just six Premier league matches this season, Pulisic was believed to have been considering a move away from Stamford Bridge in an effort to revive his career.

Sitting in 10th position on the league table, Chelsea finds themselves in a precarious position, with Pulisic among the numerous players who are unavailable through injury. While Joao Felix started his first game in a Chelsea shirt against Fulham since arriving on loan from Atletico Madrid, he received a red card, resulting in a three-game ban.

Chelsea manager Graham Potter expressed his concern over the club’s injury situation after Christian Pulisic and Raheem Sterling both limped off the field during the Blues’ 1-0 loss at home to Manchester City.

While Sterling had to depart the game after five minutes, Pulisic was substituted after 17 minutes of play with what appeared to be a knee problem.

The pair are the latest casualties in what has been a long list of injury setbacks for the Blues, with midfielder Mason Mount being ruled out of the Man City clash after he picked up a knock in training.

In addition, the club is still awaiting the recoveries of defenders Reece James, Wesley Fofana, and Ben Chilwell as well as midfielder N’Golo Kante and forward Armando Broja, all of whom are battling injuries.

Speaking of the difficulty facing the club due to its mounting list of injuries, Potter explained, “The expectation is where it is so you want to be here and have all your players available and have a fully fit squad and be able to compete. You know the demands of our supporters, who I thought were fantastic today, really supportive and got behind the team in a great way but it is frustrating for everyone at the moment.”

The USMNT star forward Christian Pulisic might finally be getting more room to showcase his talents with Premier League powerhouse Chelsea. The London club’s new head coach Graham Potter gave Pulisic his first start of the season in Sunday’s match against the Wolves, and the American responded by scoring a goal in a dominant 3-0 win.

This was also the first goal for Pulisic in 2022-23 in 10 matches in all competitions. The 24-year-old was sparsely used by former head coach Thomas Tuchel, but Potter appears eager to give the player the chance he deserves.

 “It was very nice!, “said Pulisic for the club’s official site about scoring the goal. “I wasn’t sure if Mason would get that pass through but he slipped it through. It was a tough angle so it was a nice finish, and I’m really happy to get that goal.”

Christian Pulisic’s return to form would be of great use not only for Chelsea, who are looking to continue their climb on the standings, but also for the United States men’s national team. Pulisic is the key player for USMNT, and having him ready and confident could do wonders for the team’s chances at the upcoming World Cup in Qatar. The USMNT will start the tournament in Group B with England, Iran, and Wales as its opponents.

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel revealed that midfielder Christian Pulisic is “really suffering” as he attempts to recover from the ankle injury that he sustained during the second half of the United States’ world cup qualifier against Honduras on September 8. This was also the last time that Pulisic appeared for either club or country.

“It was a tough foul and he hurt his ankle. There is nothing to worry [about] in terms of that we are hiding details or not telling you details. I cannot give you all the details because I am simply not a doctor,” Tuchel assured members of the press.

The Chelsea boss also explained that the pain issue that Pulisic is faced with is the pain of his injury. While there are no major complications resulting from the injury, Pulisic will have to get the pain under control in order to return to action.

The Blues are eagerly awaiting Pulisic’s return, particularly since they struggled to hit the ground running in both of their last two Premier League outings. Chelsea left it until late to secure a 3-1 victory against Southampton two weeks ago, scoring their second and third goals during the last 10 minutes of play. The Blues then narrowly defeated Brentford 1-0 courtesy of a Ben Chilwell strike on the stroke of halftime.

Chelsea midfielder Christian Pulisic will be unavailable for his side’s Premier League clash with Aston Villa after picking up a slight ankle problem during the international break. The 22-year-old American star limped off the field during the 62nd minute of the United States 4-1 victory over Honduras. While he initially attempted to play through the pain, Pulisic had to be substituted for the remainder of the match.

Blues manager Thomas Tuchel revealed that Pulisic rejoined Chelsea this week, arriving at the training ground on crutches. Tuchel expects Pulisic to remain out of action for 10 days, meaning that the player is also likely to miss out on Chelsea’s opening Champions League group game against Zenit St Petersburg on Tuesday.

In addition to Pulisic, the Blues are also to be without N’Golo Kante this weekend, due to the French midfielder picking up an ankle problem that saw him also miss out on his national team’s fixtures during this latest international break.

There was some temporary talk around the possibility of striker Romelu Lukaku also missing out on the Premier League clash with Aston Villa due to a thigh injury, but Tuchel has dismissed such claims.

“No, not at all. Maybe he had some problems, but he came back two days ago, yesterday he trained with us, today he trained fully, no problems at all.”

USMNT star forward Christian Pulisic might be set for a change of scenery in the summer. Pulisic, who is going through a struggling period with Premier League side Chelsea, is reportedly on the radar of German giants Bayern Munich.

According to Todofichajes, Bayern already reached out to Chelsea about a possible move and are willing to go up to $65 million to bring Pulisic back to Bundesliga. The 22-year-old American would also be in favor of the move as he looks to put his career back on track.

Pulisic established himself as one of soccer’s brightest young talents while playing with Bundesliga powerhouse Borussia Dortmund. This secured him an $80 million transfer to Chelsea and a chance to display his talent in the world’s best league.

Unfortunately for Christian Pulisic, injuries and inconsistency prevented him from being at his best on Stamford Bridge. Since joining Chelsea ahead of the 2019-20 season, Pulisic only played 55 games for the club in all competitions while scoring 13 goals and dishing 11 assists. He has particularly struggled this season, managing only one goal in 15 Premier League appearances.

Despite this, Bayern is willing to bet on Pulisic and believe he could shine again in a league that he is familiar with. They see him as an ideal candidate to replace Kingsley Coman, who is set to depart the club and will continue to make a strong push.

Chelsea, on the other hand, wouldn’t mind making a return on their investment as it became obvious that Pulisic wasn’t playing his best since coming to England. They would probably use the incoming money to fund the summer spending as the new manager Thomas Tuchel looks to rebuild the club’s roster.

USMNT star winger Christian Pulisic is finally getting back on the field after missing more than a month of action with a hamstring injury. According to Chelsea manager Frank Lampard, Pulisic will be included in the squad for the upcoming derby match against Tottenham on Sunday.

Pulisic got hurt during warmups for the game against Burnley in late October. Although the injury didn’t seem severe at the moment, it ended up forcing the 22-year-old American to miss five games.

However, according to Lampard, Pulisic is now ready to go, although he probably won’t get a start.

 “Christian Pulisic is back into contention and fitness,” Lampard told reporters on Friday. “He’s fit, ready to start is a question mark. It is hard to gauge match fitness.”

This is great news for Chelsea, as the club looks to remain in the hunt for their first Premier League title since 2017. The London club has suffered only one loss so far in the 2020/21 season and find themselves third on the standings with two points behind leading Tottenham and Liverpool.

Christian Pulisic, on the other hand, will hope to finally be available on a consistent basis after injury struggles marked the beginning of his stint with Chelsea. When on the field, however, Pulisic showed he is a difference-maker and has already racked up 12 goals and 10 assists in 39 appearances.

After being reduced to ten men following Andreas Christensen’s red card on the stroke of half time, Chelsea were defeated 2-0 by current Premier League title holders Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The Blues struggled to hit top form throughout the clash, managing to take just five shots throughout the 90 minutes. The visitors, on the other hand, made 18 attempts on the Chelsea goal and dominated the run of play with 62% ball possession.

While the Blues were able to keep the Liverpool attackers at bay for the duration of the first half, the Reds hit the ground running after the half time break, with Sadio Mane scoring two goals within five minutes of each other. Without new arrivals Ben Chilwell and Thiago Silva, as well as key forward Christian Pulisic, the Blues were unable to strike up any effective build-up plays.

“It’s always a tough game here. I liked the first half. It was two teams that wanted to play, create, defend, and make things happen,” explained Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp during the post-match conference.

Chelsea boss Frank Lampard expressed his own disappointment with the game’s outcome, stating “The red card changes the face of the game. I think it could be given or not. I was perhaps surprised it was given as a yellow first. If it was given as a red straight away, you continue with that.”

U.S. star forward Christian Pulisic will have a unified jersey number at the start of the 2020/21 season. Already sporting the No. 10 jersey with the United States national men’s team, Pulisic will now wear the same number with Chelsea.

The Premier League side announced on Friday that Pulisic has been handed the iconic No. 10, previously worn by club legends like Joe Cole and Eden Hazard. The last player to wear this number was Brazilian forward Willian, who left the club this summer to join Arsenal.

Christian Pulisic joined Chelsea last summer and took the No. 22 jersey, which he previously wore with Borussia Dortmund. He enjoyed an impressive campaign with the club thorough the 2019/20 season, contributing with 11 goals and 10 assists in all competitions. Pulisic was exceptionally important for the team after the coronavirus pandemic break, fueling the run to the UEFA Champions League spot in Premier League.

Pulisic’s good performances didn’t go unnoticed in England, as he received the Premier League’s Young Player of the Year award nomination as well.

When he made his USMNT debut in 2016, Pulisic had a No. 17 jersey on his back. But after just one year, he was handed the No. 10, and he has been wearing it ever since.

Chelsea midfielder Christian Pulisic will be unavailable for his side’s Premier League clash with Aston Villa after picking up a slight ankle problem during the international break. The 22-year-old American star limped off the field during the 62nd minute of the United States 4-1 victory over Honduras. While he initially attempted to play through the pain, Pulisic had to be substituted for the remainder of the match.

Blues manager Thomas Tuchel revealed that Pulisic rejoined Chelsea this week, arriving at the training ground on crutches. Tuchel expects Pulisic to remain out of action for 10 days, meaning that the player is also likely to miss out on Chelsea’s opening Champions League group game against Zenit St Petersburg on Tuesday.

In addition to Pulisic, the Blues are also to be without N’Golo Kante this weekend, due to the French midfielder picking up an ankle problem that saw him also miss out on his national team’s fixtures during this latest international break.

There was some temporary talk around the possibility of striker Romelu Lukaku also missing out on the Premier League clash with Aston Villa due to a thigh injury, but Tuchel has dismissed such claims.

“No, not at all. Maybe he had some problems, but he came back two days ago, yesterday he trained with us, today he trained fully, no problems at all.”

USMNT star forward Christian Pulisic might be set for a change of scenery in the summer. Pulisic, who is going through a struggling period with Premier League side Chelsea, is reportedly on the radar of German giants Bayern Munich.

According to Todofichajes, Bayern already reached out to Chelsea about a possible move and are willing to go up to $65 million to bring Pulisic back to Bundesliga. The 22-year-old American would also be in favor of the move as he looks to put his career back on track.

Pulisic established himself as one of soccer’s brightest young talents while playing with Bundesliga powerhouse Borussia Dortmund. This secured him an $80 million transfer to Chelsea and a chance to display his talent in the world’s best league.

Unfortunately for Christian Pulisic, injuries and inconsistency prevented him from being at his best on Stamford Bridge. Since joining Chelsea ahead of the 2019-20 season, Pulisic only played 55 games for the club in all competitions while scoring 13 goals and dishing 11 assists. He has particularly struggled this season, managing only one goal in 15 Premier League appearances.

Despite this, Bayern is willing to bet on Pulisic and believe he could shine again in a league that he is familiar with. They see him as an ideal candidate to replace Kingsley Coman, who is set to depart the club and will continue to make a strong push.

Chelsea, on the other hand, wouldn’t mind making a return on their investment as it became obvious that Pulisic wasn’t playing his best since coming to England. They would probably use the incoming money to fund the summer spending as the new manager Thomas Tuchel looks to rebuild the club’s roster.

USMNT star winger Christian Pulisic is finally getting back on the field after missing more than a month of action with a hamstring injury. According to Chelsea manager Frank Lampard, Pulisic will be included in the squad for the upcoming derby match against Tottenham on Sunday.

Pulisic got hurt during warmups for the game against Burnley in late October. Although the injury didn’t seem severe at the moment, it ended up forcing the 22-year-old American to miss five games.

However, according to Lampard, Pulisic is now ready to go, although he probably won’t get a start.

 “Christian Pulisic is back into contention and fitness,” Lampard told reporters on Friday. “He’s fit, ready to start is a question mark. It is hard to gauge match fitness.”

This is great news for Chelsea, as the club looks to remain in the hunt for their first Premier League title since 2017. The London club has suffered only one loss so far in the 2020/21 season and find themselves third on the standings with two points behind leading Tottenham and Liverpool.

Christian Pulisic, on the other hand, will hope to finally be available on a consistent basis after injury struggles marked the beginning of his stint with Chelsea. When on the field, however, Pulisic showed he is a difference-maker and has already racked up 12 goals and 10 assists in 39 appearances.

After being reduced to ten men following Andreas Christensen’s red card on the stroke of half time, Chelsea were defeated 2-0 by current Premier League title holders Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The Blues struggled to hit top form throughout the clash, managing to take just five shots throughout the 90 minutes. The visitors, on the other hand, made 18 attempts on the Chelsea goal and dominated the run of play with 62% ball possession.

While the Blues were able to keep the Liverpool attackers at bay for the duration of the first half, the Reds hit the ground running after the half time break, with Sadio Mane scoring two goals within five minutes of each other. Without new arrivals Ben Chilwell and Thiago Silva, as well as key forward Christian Pulisic, the Blues were unable to strike up any effective build-up plays.

“It’s always a tough game here. I liked the first half. It was two teams that wanted to play, create, defend, and make things happen,” explained Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp during the post-match conference.

Chelsea boss Frank Lampard expressed his own disappointment with the game’s outcome, stating “The red card changes the face of the game. I think it could be given or not. I was perhaps surprised it was given as a yellow first. If it was given as a red straight away, you continue with that.”

U.S. star forward Christian Pulisic will have a unified jersey number at the start of the 2020/21 season. Already sporting the No. 10 jersey with the United States national men’s team, Pulisic will now wear the same number with Chelsea.

The Premier League side announced on Friday that Pulisic has been handed the iconic No. 10, previously worn by club legends like Joe Cole and Eden Hazard. The last player to wear this number was Brazilian forward Willian, who left the club this summer to join Arsenal.

Christian Pulisic joined Chelsea last summer and took the No. 22 jersey, which he previously wore with Borussia Dortmund. He enjoyed an impressive campaign with the club thorough the 2019/20 season, contributing with 11 goals and 10 assists in all competitions. Pulisic was exceptionally important for the team after the coronavirus pandemic break, fueling the run to the UEFA Champions League spot in Premier League.

Pulisic’s good performances didn’t go unnoticed in England, as he received the Premier League’s Young Player of the Year award nomination as well.

When he made his USMNT debut in 2016, Pulisic had a No. 17 jersey on his back. But after just one year, he was handed the No. 10, and he has been wearing it ever since.
