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.

United States Men’s National Team manager Gregg Berhalter has confirmed that Christian Pulisic is looking good to play in his team’s Round of 16 match against the Netherlands on Saturday night.

The Chelsea midfielder suffered a pelvic contusion as he scored the winner in a 1-0 victory that sealed the United States’ spot in the World Cup knockouts. While he was able to see out the first half, Pulsiic eventually had to be substituted at half time.

“We’re gonna see him on the training field today,” Berhalter confirmed during a press conference on Friday. “What I think is, it looks pretty good, but we’ll have to see him today on the pitch to get confirmation of that.”

Although Berhalter appeared optimistic about Pulisic’s hopes of returning to the field, he seemed less confident about forward Josh Sargent, who was substituted in the 77th minute of the Iran game due to injury. The player is currently suffering from left ankle soreness, with Berhalter adding that he is less likely than Pulisic to appear in the game against the Netherlands.

The United States Men’s National Team midfielder Christian Pulisic has assured that he will be fit to face the Netherlands in the Round of 16 of the World Cup on Saturday, December 3.

Pulisic incurred a pelvic injury during the United States’ 1-0 victory over Iran in their final Group B clash when he collided with Iranian goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand after scoring a header shortly before the half-time whistle.

While Pulisic received on-field medical attention from his team’s medical staff following the incident, he was ultimately able to get up and finish off the first half with his team. Brenden Aaronson came on for Pulisic at the start of the second half, with the latter being transported to the hospital for further evaluation. He was later diagnosed with a pelvic contusion.

“We got to speak to him and he’s in good spirits,” coach Gregg Berhalter revealed during a news conference after the game. “That’s what he does, that’s the special quality he has and as soon as a goal is wide he goes in with intensity.”

The win over Iran is the United States’ first World Cup victory since the 2014 tournament, which was also the last time they progressed to the Round of 16.

Chelsea and United States midfielder Christian Pulisic has reportedly become a potential transfer target for Manchester United. The Premier League club is considering bringing Pulisic to Old Trafford on a loan deal.

With Chelsea willing to allow Pulisic to leave during the January transfer window, a deal of this nature remains a possibility. Although Man Utd initially did not plan to make any major transfers in January, the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo from the club has created a sense of urgency for the club to reinforce its squad.

According to several sources, Pulisic’s versatility as both a midfielder and an attack has made him an appealing option for the Red Devils, who are looking to fill several voids left behind by Ronaldo and other players such as Martial who are missing through injury.

The 24-year-old player has proven himself to be a key player for the United States both before and during the ongoing World Cup, having played every minute of the tournament in Qatar.

Prior to joining Chelsea in 2019, Pulisic was a transfer target of both Manchester United and bitter rivals Liverpool. Ultimately, it was the Blues that landed his signature.

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.

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.

USMNT’s star winger Christian Pulisic is getting recognition for his superb performances with Chelsea in 2019/20. The Premier League announced on Friday that Pulisic received a nomination for Young Player of the Season award.

Although Pulisic was limited to just 25 Premier League games due to injuries, he made a valuable impact in helping Chelsea reach the Champions League spot. The 21-year-old winger scored nine goals while adding five assists.

Pulisic’s teammate Mason Mount also picked up the nomination after he played a key component in London club’s midfield in 2019/20. Mount finished the season with seven goals and five assists.

Chelsea duo is joined by Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, and Mason Greenwood, Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold, Aston Villa’s Jack Grealish, and Sheffield United’s Dean Henderson.

This presents the inaugural edition of the Young Player of the Season award, which is given to the “best-performing player who was aged 23 or younger at the start of the campaign.” The winner is determined by public vote.

Chelsea’s manager Frank Lampard thinks that USMNT star Christian Pulisic could become one of the best soccer players in the world in the future. According to Lampard, Pulisic “has talent” to reach the level of Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling and Liverpool’s Mohammed Salah and Sadio Mane.

After struggling to stay healthy earlier in the season, Pulisic received extended playing time following Premier League’s returned to activity in June. The 21-year-old responded with some spectacular performances which included scoring in Chelsea’s wins over Aston Villa and Man City.

Naturally, this earned him praises from his manager.

“I think he can become a really big player,” said Lampard in a recent chat with ProSoccerTalk. “We have to take his age into consideration, but there’s no doubting the quality. We can see that. He’s very keen to improve and to work, and he’s particularly hungry at the minute because he missed some time with his injury.”

According to Lampard, Pulisic is only beginning to realize his potential.

“He has the ability of the Raheem Sterling’s who are producing numbers from wide areas, the Mo Salah’s and Mane’s. It’s important he understands the work that needs to be done to do that because he definitely has the talent to do that,” he added.

Christian Pulisic joined Chelsea last summer from Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund. And although he had ups and downs during his first season in England, Pulisic still managed to show that he represents the future of the London club.

Pulisic played a total of 26 games in all competitions with Chelsea in 2019/20, scoring eight goals and dishing six assists.

It didn’t take long for U.S. international winger Christian Pulisic to make an impact for Chelsea after coming in as a substitute on Sunday against Aston Villa. Pulisic needed just five minutes of action to score an equalizing goal, which helped the London club to a 1-2 comeback win.

Aston Villa was better in the first part of the game, managing to get ahead just before the halftime. Defender Kortney Hause used the confusion in the penalty area after a cross from Douglas Luiz and got the ball past Kepa to give his team a deserved lead.

Chelsea entered the second half with an attacking mentality but couldn’t crack Villa’s defense in the first 10 minutes of the period.  Manager Frank Lampard then decided to put in Ross Barkley and Christian Pulisic instead of Mateo Kovacic and Robert Loftus-Cheek in the 55th minute, hoping for a spark that could lead his team back into the game.

Lampard’s tinkering already paid off in the 60th minute, as Pulisic scored his seventh goal of the season thanks to a great assist from Cesar Azpilicueta. It was a great moment for USMNT star, considering he was playing his first game since January.

Just two minutes later, Chelsea scored again thanks to French striker Olivier Giroud, who converted another assist from Azpilicueta.

Chelsea managed to keep the 1-2 lead until the end of the game and made a big step towards playing UEFA Champions League next year. They now sit at the fourth spot in Premier League with five points more than their closest followers Manchester United and Wolverhampton.

Aston Villa, on the other hand, still finds itself in the relegation zone, sitting at 19th with 26 points.

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.

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’s manager Frank Lampard thinks that USMNT star Christian Pulisic could become one of the best soccer players in the world in the future. According to Lampard, Pulisic “has talent” to reach the level of Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling and Liverpool’s Mohammed Salah and Sadio Mane.

After struggling to stay healthy earlier in the season, Pulisic received extended playing time following Premier League’s returned to activity in June. The 21-year-old responded with some spectacular performances which included scoring in Chelsea’s wins over Aston Villa and Man City.

Naturally, this earned him praises from his manager.

“I think he can become a really big player,” said Lampard in a recent chat with ProSoccerTalk. “We have to take his age into consideration, but there’s no doubting the quality. We can see that. He’s very keen to improve and to work, and he’s particularly hungry at the minute because he missed some time with his injury.”

According to Lampard, Pulisic is only beginning to realize his potential.

“He has the ability of the Raheem Sterling’s who are producing numbers from wide areas, the Mo Salah’s and Mane’s. It’s important he understands the work that needs to be done to do that because he definitely has the talent to do that,” he added.

Christian Pulisic joined Chelsea last summer from Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund. And although he had ups and downs during his first season in England, Pulisic still managed to show that he represents the future of the London club.

Pulisic played a total of 26 games in all competitions with Chelsea in 2019/20, scoring eight goals and dishing six assists.

It didn’t take long for U.S. international winger Christian Pulisic to make an impact for Chelsea after coming in as a substitute on Sunday against Aston Villa. Pulisic needed just five minutes of action to score an equalizing goal, which helped the London club to a 1-2 comeback win.

Aston Villa was better in the first part of the game, managing to get ahead just before the halftime. Defender Kortney Hause used the confusion in the penalty area after a cross from Douglas Luiz and got the ball past Kepa to give his team a deserved lead.

Chelsea entered the second half with an attacking mentality but couldn’t crack Villa’s defense in the first 10 minutes of the period.  Manager Frank Lampard then decided to put in Ross Barkley and Christian Pulisic instead of Mateo Kovacic and Robert Loftus-Cheek in the 55th minute, hoping for a spark that could lead his team back into the game.

Lampard’s tinkering already paid off in the 60th minute, as Pulisic scored his seventh goal of the season thanks to a great assist from Cesar Azpilicueta. It was a great moment for USMNT star, considering he was playing his first game since January.

Just two minutes later, Chelsea scored again thanks to French striker Olivier Giroud, who converted another assist from Azpilicueta.

Chelsea managed to keep the 1-2 lead until the end of the game and made a big step towards playing UEFA Champions League next year. They now sit at the fourth spot in Premier League with five points more than their closest followers Manchester United and Wolverhampton.

Aston Villa, on the other hand, still finds itself in the relegation zone, sitting at 19th with 26 points.
