Transfer News: Out-of-favour Chelsea star emerges as a Liverpool target

Transfer News: Liverpool keeping tabs on Christian Pulisic situation at Chelsea

According to Express, news has emerged that Liverpool could be interested in a transfer for Christian Pulisic should Chelsea let him leave. The Reds are keeping tabs on the American star’s situation at Chelsea after he has slipped to the fringes under Thomas Tuchel.

While Tuchel did admit that he has been unfair in not giving more chances for Pulisic to impress, the whole situation did little to help as several clubs are now after him.

The Everton game was another in a series of snubs for Pulisic, with only the Leeds United game being his first start under Tuchel.

Prior to Tuchel’s arrival, Pulisic was one of the most important players for Chelsea under Frank Lampard. Under Tuchel, most players have received chances to showcase their talent. However, there seems to be no place for the USMNT star in the new setup under Tuchel.

He has played an alarmingly low 85 minutes in the last 3 games under the new manager. Yes, he has struggled with injuries this season but now finds himself on the fringes despite being fit.

Tuchel seemingly cannot find a place for him in his new setup as the winger continues to struggle for minutes.

Former Liverpool striker Emile Heskey feels that a move to Liverpool would suit the youngster. He was of the opinion that Pulisic needs a manager like Jurgen Klopp who can give him some reassurance.

Nonetheless, Pulisic will likely wait until the end of this season to decide on his future and does not want to cause any problems at the club right now. He could well be one of the few players who could choose to leave the club in the summer.
