“Good deal for both sides”, “Another player upgrading” – Fans react as Chelsea reach agreement with European club for 24-year-old star
Fans have reacted to the news of Chelsea reportedly reaching an agreement with AC Milan to sell Christian Pulisic.
The USA international cost the Blues €64 million in transfer fees when he was added to their books in January 2019. But over the years, he has failed to build on the promise that he showed during his time in North Rhine-Westphalia.
A summer move to AC Milan is now on the cards. According to Fabrizio Romano, the two clubs have reached an agreement and I Rossoneri are in the process of scheduling a medical.
Pulisic apparently agreed personal terms with the Milan-based giants weeks ago and wanted to move to San Siro this summer. Fans have since reacted to the winger’s imminent transfer to AC Milan.
One tweeted:
“Everyone is leaving mid table club”
Another added:
“Another player upgrading by leaving Chelsea ????“
Here are a few more reactions by fans on Twitter:
@dujarr_din: Another player upgrading by leaving Chelsea
@IdrisKhalif:Another USMNT talent that’s failed to fulfill his huge potentials. Hope he revives his career in Milan.
@Irunnia_; Finally upgraded to a club where he can play Champions league football.
@CFCErm: Congrats, Christian. Good deal for both sides. He’s gonna cook at AC Milan.
Cheptarei_timy: Everyone is leaving mid table club
@ytn_abzz: About damn time. He needed to leave, AC Milan would be a good move for him but it’s good that we are getting rid.
Pulisic (24) registered 26 goals and 21 assists in 145 appearances for Chelsea, winning three trophies including the UEFA Champions League. He entered the final year of his contract at Stamford Bridge this month.
Pulisic struggled for regular playing time at Chelsea and never started more than 19 Premier League games in a season during his four full campaigns in west London.
