Speaking on ESPN, Steve Nicol has been discussing Christian Pulisic’s future after it was suggested that he should join Leeds United.
The American’s future at Chelsea seems to be up in the air right now, and after Leeds signed two new USMNT players this summer, a viewer suggested that Pulisic should go to Elland Road.
However, Nicol has advised the 23-year-old against the move, stating that he shouldn’t go anywhere near Leeds – claiming that Bayern Munich would be a better destination for the Chelsea man.
What’s been said?
Nicol spoke about Pulisic’s next step after Leeds were suggested.
“If I’m Pulisic I don’t go anywhere near Leeds. Does he make them better? Yes, he makes them better straight away, but stay away from Leeds. No, no, no,” Nicol said.
“I don’t know, maybe he could go to Bayern, if Gnabry doesn’t re-sign, maybe he could go to Bayern.”
Back to Germany
Nicol says that Bayern Munich would be a good move for Pulisic, and we’re inclined to agree.
Sadly for the American, his time in England hasn’t quite gone to plan as injuries and poor form have seen him falter at Stamford Bridge.
However, he was a star at Borussia Dortmund over in Germany, and a return to the Bundesliga, this time with Bayern, could suit him to a tee.
Bayern could certainly be in the market for a new winger soon if Serge Gnabry departs, and Pulisic could be the player the Bavarian outfit turn to.
One thing is for sure though, the American can aim much higher than Leeds, even if the prospect of working with Jesse Marsch, Brendan Aaronson and Tyler Adams would be appealing.
