Christian Pulisic handed transfer reprieve as Chelsea forced into £88m Mykhailo Mudryk rethink

Christian Pulisic could have left Chelsea this month, however, a knee injury may have inadvertently secured his short term future at the club.

The American forward has struggled to tie down a regular plae in the Blues starting XI under Graham Potter or previous incumbent Thomas Tuchel before him. The USMNT captain has been linked with a Stamford Bridge exit on numerous occasions, with the signings of Mykhailo Mudryk and Joao Felix on loan appearing to spell the end for his Chelsea career.

However, he may have had a reprieve, due to the knee injury he suffered at the beginning of January. Pulisic looks set to be out of action for a "couple of months" according to Potter and that makes any transfer move difficult.
