Christian Pulisic could play a major role in Chelsea completing the signing of Juventus defender Matthijs de Ligt this summer. The 22-year-old centre-half has been heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge, with Thomas Tuchel eager to replace Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen.
However, while a deal is yet to have materialised, it's said that either club are open to navigating various avenues in order to complete a transaction. And, according to Tuttosport, via Marca, Pulisic is of interest to the Italian giants amid the west Londoners' pursuit for De Ligt.
The report adds that Juventus would be open to discussing a swap deal with Chelsea to ensure that a transfer suits all parties involved. Tuttosport add that Juve would, hypothetically, receive Pulisic - or Timo Werner - plus cash in order for Chelsea to sign De Ligt.
