Christian Pulisic has the quality to succeed at Chelsea even if the Blues move for Raheem Sterling, former United States international Brad Friedel says.
Chelsea are expected to be active in the transfer market under new owner Todd Boehly as they aim to improve on last season's third-place finish in the Premier League. One of the players most strongly linked with a Stamford Bridge switch is England forward Sterling, who is entering the final year of his contract at current club Manchester City and is open to joining the London side.
If Sterling does return to west London more than a decade after leaving boyhood club QPR, Pulisic could be among those whose minutes come under threat. With a World Cup on the horizon, the former Borussia Dortmund star may be tempted to look at his options elsewhere, but his compatriot isn't worried just yet.
