Chelsea star Christian Pulisic could push to leave the Blues amid interest from Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United and Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United among other clubs, according to ESPN.
ESPN have reported that Newcastle, Manchester United, Juventus and Atletico Madrid all have expressed interest in signing Pulisic from Chelsea in the summer transfer window.
The USA international, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or as a winger, will hold showdown talks with Chelsea and could push to leave if he feels that he would not get much playing time in the run-up to the 2022 World Cup finals in Qatar later this year.
Could Newcastle United sign Chelsea’s Christian Pulisic?
In our view, Newcastle United could struggle to sign Christian Pulisic from Chelsea in the summer transfer window.
Yes, Chelsea could eventually decide to let the 23-year-old leave, but with the likes of Manchester United, Juventus and Atletico all keen on the American youngster, it is hard to see the £150,000-a-week (SalarySport) star make the move to Newcastle, even on a loan deal.
After all, Juventus and Atletico regularly challenge for league titles, play in the UEFA Champions League and have quality players of Pulisic’s standards.
