United States men’s national team star Christian Pulisic is closing in on a move to Seria A side AC Milan. According to multiple reports, Pulisic agreed to personal terms of a long-term deal with the Italian club, and all that’s left is for Milan to negotiate a transfer fee with Chelsea.

It is believed that Chelsea wants at least €25 million to part with the American, while Milan wants to lower the price. Pulisic is reportedly excited about the opportunity to restart his career in Italy and is confident the two clubs will end up making the deal.

Pulisic was expected to leave Chelsea all along this summer after several underwhelming seasons with the London club that were marred with injuries. Juventus initially showed interest in bringing the 24-year-old to Italy but were stalling with making the final bid, which allowed Milan to swoop in.

Moving to Milan could help Pulisic to bounce back and find his form again. He should have more playing time as there will be a lot less competition up front compared to his time in the London club.

Christian Pulisic arrived at Chelsea in the summer of 2019 in a £58 million transfer from Borussia Dortmund. Since then, he has played 145 games with the club in all competitions, scoring 26 goals and adding 21 assists. Pulisic was part of the Chelsea team that won the UEFA Champions League in 2020–21.

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.

The United States men’s national team defeated Granada 7-1 on Friday night in what was their first competitive game since the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The victory sees the U.S. move within touching distance of qualification for the CONCACAF Nations League semifinals.

Christian Pulisic scored a goal and assisted four more while Weston McKennie and Ricardo Pepi both scored two of their own. Brenden Aaronson and Alejandro Zendejas also got on the scoresheet in what was a solid first game for interim head coach Anthony Hudson.

“A performance and a result like this can be — you don’t want to get carried away,” Hudson commented after the game. “The importance for us is just to make sure that we do all the right things between now and the next game and we finish the job off. But the actual performance, I thought it was the result of just a really, really good week.”

USA now sits atop the Group D standings in League A with seven points, while El Salvador and Granada trail with five points and one point respectively. The U.S. only has to avoid a loss to El Salvador in their last group game to qualify for the semifinals

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.

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.

The United States men’s national team wasn’t able to extend their 13-game unbeaten streak on Sunday. The USMNT faced Panama in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers game and were handed a surprising 1-0 loss.

The U.S., lacking Chelsea’s Christian Pulisic, Borussia Dortmund’s Giovanni Reyna, and Juventus’ Weston McKennie, had no answer for Panama’s defense and failed to create viable opportunities in front of Luis Mejia’s goal. This led to just five shots on the opponent’s goal for the Americans, none of which was on target.

Panama, on the other hand, had much better chances and could have scored as early as the 14th minute, but Rolando Blackburn came late on the dangerous cross by Freddy Gondola. This didn’t discourage Panama, as they continued to attack and eventually found the opener in the 54th minute.

A corner cross from Eric Davis found Anibal Godoy, who beat Gyasi Zardes to the jump and sent the ball past goalie Matt Turner.

USMNT adopted an attacking mindset after the goal but couldn’t create anything in front of Panama’s goal, and the result remained unchanged.

“The quality wasn’t high enough in the final ball when we did get in those [attacking] positions,” USMNT’s manager Gregg Berhalter said after the game. “I think the ability for our players to turn and play forward was lacking today. And overall, again, we performed below the expectations that we have for ourselves.”

Despite the loss, USMNT kept its 2nd place spot on the standings with eight points, five less than leading Mexico. Panama also has eight, but is behind the U.S. on goal difference.

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.

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.

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.

The United States men’s national team wasn’t able to extend their 13-game unbeaten streak on Sunday. The USMNT faced Panama in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers game and were handed a surprising 1-0 loss.

The U.S., lacking Chelsea’s Christian Pulisic, Borussia Dortmund’s Giovanni Reyna, and Juventus’ Weston McKennie, had no answer for Panama’s defense and failed to create viable opportunities in front of Luis Mejia’s goal. This led to just five shots on the opponent’s goal for the Americans, none of which was on target.

Panama, on the other hand, had much better chances and could have scored as early as the 14th minute, but Rolando Blackburn came late on the dangerous cross by Freddy Gondola. This didn’t discourage Panama, as they continued to attack and eventually found the opener in the 54th minute.

A corner cross from Eric Davis found Anibal Godoy, who beat Gyasi Zardes to the jump and sent the ball past goalie Matt Turner.

USMNT adopted an attacking mindset after the goal but couldn’t create anything in front of Panama’s goal, and the result remained unchanged.

“The quality wasn’t high enough in the final ball when we did get in those [attacking] positions,” USMNT’s manager Gregg Berhalter said after the game. “I think the ability for our players to turn and play forward was lacking today. And overall, again, we performed below the expectations that we have for ourselves.”

Despite the loss, USMNT kept its 2nd place spot on the standings with eight points, five less than leading Mexico. Panama also has eight, but is behind the U.S. on goal difference.

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.
