Christian Pulisic is the latest Chelsea player to be linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge, as the American international could be used to lure Victor Osimhen from Napoli.

The Blues signed Pulisic from Borussia Dortmund in 2019 and since then the 24-year-old has made 142 appearances, scoring 26 and assisting 21 goals.

Moving to the Premier League has not been an easy transition for the youngster, who is yet to cement himself as a first team starter. Which has been evident this season, starting only eight games under Graham Potter and Frank Lampard.

With Chelsea’s recent transfer business, which saw them spend over half a billion pounds across two windows, rumours of a possible move away from England have started to circulate.

According to reports, the former Dortmund trickster could be used in a move for Napoli star, Victor Osimhen, as Chelsea continue their pursuit for the Nigeria international.

The side from Naples clinched their first Serie A title in over 30 years last week, with the lethal marksman scoring the all-important goal.

Scoring 23 goals in 28 league appearances has put the former Lille striker on a variety of club’s shortlist, as Chelsea, Manchester United and Bayern Munich are all interested in landing his signature.

However, a deal to land the 24-year-old could prove to be a difficult one to agree, as the Italian side have set a price tag of over £100m.

Which would rule the majority of clubs out, however, with Chelsea spending over £100m to sign Enzo Fernandez, the Blues could be in pole position.

Whether Napoli are interested in Pulisic remains to be seen, with star winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, showing electric form throughout the season.

The Georgian winger has made 30 appearances this season and has contributed to 22 goals, forming a dynamic partnership with his Nigerian counterpart.
