Juventus transfer news: With his future in doubts at Chelsea, Christian Pulisic is looking to move from the club and Juve is reportedly leading the race
Following a dismal season, there has been much talk over Christian Pulisic’s future at Chelsea. The American attacker is expected to leave Stamford Bridge, and Juventus of Italy is apparently leading the competition to sign him.
Pulisic’s probable transfer to Serie A looks to be imminent due to interest from other teams including Manchester United, Newcastle, AC Milan, Napoli, and Galatasaray. The specifics of Pulisic’s rumored transfer to Juventus, his dismal Chelsea campaign, and the repercussions of his leaving will all be covered in this piece.
Since making the highly publicized switch from Borussia Dortmund to Chelsea in January 2019, Pulisic has run across a number of challenges that have slowed down his ascent in the Premier League. The 24-year-old striker has struggled with consistency as a result of injuries and little playing time, which have stopped him from obtaining a consistent berth in the starting lineup.
Pulisic had 30 appearances in the 2022–23 season, only making eight starts, and only produced one goal and two assists. His future at Chelsea is questionable in part due to his unimpressive statistics.
According to rumors, Juventus has a strong chance of signing Pulisic in a $25 million deal. Among a number of prospective bidders, including many Premier League teams, the Turin-based club led by Massimiliano Allegri is seen as the frontrunner.
Juventus may still appeal the punishment, even though they risk missing out on Champions League play the next season due to a 10-point deduction for incorrect accounting. This circumstance could make it harder for them to draw in talents like Pulisic, who want to take part in top-tier European competitions.
Following a bad season for the club, there is likely to be a large exodus of players, and Pulisic’s exit from Chelsea is one of them. When the American attacker came in as a substitute during Chelsea’s final game of the season against Newcastle, the home crowd was less than enthused, with some booing the changes.
