Christian Pulisic is headed to Italy.
Pulisic spent the past four seasons with the English club, where he scored 20 goals and tallied nine assists in 98 matches. He joined Chelsea from the Bundesliga's Borussia Dortmund in 2019 on a reported $65 million transfer, which still stands as the most expensive transfer payment for an American player. Pulisic tallied 13 goals and 16 assists at Dortmund from 2015 to 2019.
Most notably, though, Pulisic is a captain for the United States men's national team. He scored one goal and added two assists during the U.S.'s four World Cup matches in Qatar in 2022, during which he also won two Man of the Match awards. Pulisic has scored 20 goals with 11 assists in 50 USMNT matches since 2016.
He'll now get an opportunity to play in the Champions League again this upcoming season, something he wouldn't have been able to do if he stayed with Chelsea or agreed to join Lyon . Pulisic also will join fellow ex-Chelsea player Ruben Loftus-Cheek,Pulisic's transfer is the most recent in a slew of players Chelsea either lost or shipped out during this transfer window.
Loftus-Cheek, Kai Havertz , Mason Mount , Mateo Kovacic , Kalidou Koulibably and Eduoard Mendy were transferred out this summer. All but Mendy played at least 20 matches this past season. Other veterans such as César Azpilicueta Hakim Ziyech was supposed to join Al-Nassr as well, but his deal collapsed after medical tests revealed a knee issue.
