Juventus given green light to complete Christian Pulisic transfer as Chelsea face £59m dilemma

Giorgio Chiellini has given former side Juventus his blessing to complete the signing of Christian Pulisic, with the Chelsea forward facing an increasingly uncertain future in west London. The 23-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from Stamford Bridge this summer having fallen out of favour under Thomas Tuchel last season.

Pulisic, who sees his contract with the Blues expire in 2024, started just 13 of Chelsea's 38 Premier League fixtures this term, finding the net just six times. The United States international has often performed in moments and shown glimpses of magic, but he's struggled to sustain his high-levels over the duration of a fifty to sixty-game season.

Though, despite his fluctuating displays, he's courted the interest of Juventus. And, with Todd Boehly set to let Pulisic leave if he receives acceptable offers, Chiellini has given the Old Lady the green light to bring the American to Turin.
