Give Me Sport had an exclusive quote from Dean Jones on the subject of Christian Pulisic, who the insider says is preparing to leave Chelsea this summer.
Jones points out that the American winger can’t waste another year on the bench, after one again proving unable to secure a starting spot at Stamford Bridge. There’s also now more competition in those places than ever before.
His quotes on the matter make it all very clear:
“Pulisic’s future has been uncertain for most of the last season and he can’t spend another year kicking his heels on the bench or in the stands at Stamford Bridge. So if he isn’t given clear indications that he can fight for his place and be part of this, then he will definitely look for a transfer.”
It’s just an opinion and not claiming any inside knowledge, but nobody is going to disagree with this take. Pulisic has looked half checked out for more than a year now, and if anything this move is coming too late for him and for Chelsea.
What’s worrying is that we haven’t really heard any concrete rumours about where he might go. Juventus are said to be interested, but there’s certainly not a lot of action in any direction at the moment.
