Christian Pulisic has been given one condition to stick to upon his next transfer as a way back at Chelsea looks increasingly unlikely. Having only made his return to the matchday squad last week, with two appearances from the bench, the 24-year-old is now preparing for international duty.
The time away with his country may well disrupt his already disjointed position in life at Stamford Bridge. With new signings coming in to give added competition and a mass summer exodus on the cards for owner Todd Boehly, Pulisic's future is up in the air.
His time out - just over two months with injury picked up in early January - may well have prolonged his stay in London with interest in his services from across Europe. That hasn't made it any easier to pin down where he will be playing football next season though.
