Man Utd ‘target loan transfer for Christian Pulisic and Chelsea winger is ready to snub FOUR clubs to join rivals’

MANCHESTER UNITED are planning a shock loan move for Chelsea's Christian Pulisic, according to reports.

The USA captain has grown increasingly frustrated at his lack of game time under Thomas Tuchel, who also coached him at Borussia Dortmund.

Newcastle United, Juventus and Atletico Madrid are all believed to have made approaches to sign Pulisic this summer.

And according to, United are set to join that list and test whether the Blues will loan the winger out.

The report adds that Pulisic, 23, is ready to listen to offers to move away this summer and even prefers joining United over anyone else.

It comes following a lack of game time with the Qatar World Cup starting in just three months.

Pulisic was linked with United and Liverpool before signing for Chelsea in a £58million two years ago.

In the period since, he has made 117 appearances, scoring 25 goals.

Last season, he suffered a period on the sidelines following an ankle injury and made just 13 Premier League starts.

He finished the campaign with only eight goals and fell behind in the Chelsea pecking order.

Already this season, Romelu Lukaku, 29, has re-joined Inter Milan on loan and Timo Werner, 26, is back at RB Leipzig permanently.

And now Pulisic and Callum Hudson-Odoi, 21, are linked with loan moves away to secure more regular football.

Chelsea did bring in Raheem Sterling, 27, from Manchester City for £50m at the start of the window but no No9 has been signed in replace of Lukaku.

Thomas Tuchel is believed to be pushing to sign ex-Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, 33, currently at Arsenal.

And Chelsea have seen a shock £40m bid REJECTED by Everton for starlet Anthony Gordon.

German Kai Havertz, 23, and Sterling will look to lead the line for Tuchel if no more additions are brought in before the September 1 deadline.

Meanwhile, United boss Erik ten Hag is ready to allow Cristiano Ronaldo, 37, to leave and rumours suggest his contract could be ripped up.

So it would leave a space in Ten Hag's front line of which Pulisic would be primed to fill.
