Christian Pulisic has faced many challenges since joining Chelsea from Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund and could change teams during the summer transfer window. The United States men’s national team ace desires more playing time and he is aware that if he remains in Stamford Bridge next season, he may not arrive to the FIFA World Cup in top form if he is lacking minutes.

Pulisic being linked to Everton

The 23-year-old has removed all Chelsea references from his Instagram and he has been linked to several clubs. The Stamford Bridge side is targeting forward Richarlison from Everton and they could include Christian Pulisic in the negotiations. The United States international could be reunited with manager Frank Lampard and see more playing time with the Toffees.

Lampard helped Pulisic adapt to the Premier League upon arrival but due to the poor results of the team he was sacked. Then Thomas Tuchel took over the managerial job and the American struggled to see more play time. Injuries have also prevented him from being more consistent and his market value has dropped from $70 million to $45 million in three seasons with Chelsea.

Christian Pulisic’s minutes could be under threat if he remains with the London side because they are expected to be very active during the transfer market. The American was linked with a move to Liverpool but the team managed by Jurgen Klopp ruled out the possibility because they are targeting another forward, not a winger.
