ESPN are reporting that Christian Pulisic is set to leave Chelsea this summer as part of a “radical overhaul” of their squad.
It’s almost inevitable that some players will leave, after the Blues spent so lavishly on wingers in January. Pulisic is out injured now, but when he’s back he’s unlikely to get too many chances to play. He will likely sit alongside Hakim Ziyech on the bench, watching Noni Madueke, Mykhailo Mudryk, Raheem Sterling and Joao Felix play.
With just 18 months left on his contract, Chelsea have apparently accepted they’re going to make a major loss on the €64m they spent on the USA star in 2019.
Also mentioned as being available for sale (some more surprising than others) are Callum Hudson-Odoi, Kalidou Koulibaly and Mateo Kovacic. Romelu Lukaku looks likely to stay another year at Inter if a deal can be agreed, while Mason Mount and N’Golo Kante are jammed in contract talks.
