Christian Pulisic set for Mauricio Pochettino lifeline on one condition amid Chelsea transfer

Christian Pulisic could be handed a Chelsea lifeline by Mauricio Pochettino provided the winger makes a good impression on his new head coach.

That is according to Pulisic's compatriot, Brad Friedel, who thinks that the player can salvage his Chelsea career by knuckling down in pre-season. Pochettino is due to start work at the Blues on Saturday amid a clearout of the Stamford Bridge side's squad with Ruben Loftus-Cheek the latest player to depart the club, with the 27 year-old heading to AC Milan for £18million.

Milan also hold an interest in Pulisic, with the San Siro side's Serie A rivals Juventus and Napoli also keen on the United States of America ace too. Meanwhile, reports have claimed that the 24 year-old's representatives have approached Chelsea's Premier League rivals Manchester United and Newcastle United to gauge their interest in signing their client.
