Christian Pulisic rejects Chelsea's best transfer offer as he picks preferred destination

The highest bid Chelsea have received for Christian Pulisic came from Lyon, but the United States men's national team star does not want to sign off on a move to the French club. Instead, he prefers to play for AC Milan, who offered less money to the Blues.

According to ESPN, AC Milan's first bid for Pulisic was about £12.9m (€15m), significantly less than Chelsea's reported asking price of £21m (€25m). Lyon's offer is said to have been closer to what the Blues desire.

Pulisic, though, has reportedly agreed personal terms with AC Milan. His heart seems set on the Italian club and the Champions League football they offer.
