Football analyst Alex Lalas believes Newcastle United's project under the new ownership could be a 'very interesting' prospect for Christian Pulisic. Pulisic has started both of Chelsea's opening Premier League matches on the bench and has fallen further down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge, with Manchester United said to also be interested in his signing.
The United States international has shown glimpses of his brilliance, such as his hat-trick against Burnley in October 2019 and his opener in the 2020 FA Cup final defeat against Arsenal, before his afternoon was ended prematurely due to injury.
His injury problems coupled with a lack of consistency has contributed to his struggles at Chelsea. Although Lalas believes Pulisic is happy in London, he does think the lure of Newcastle's long-term ambitions will be an exciting prospect for the 23-year-old.
