Christian Pulisic has ended his transfer saga by signing for Chelsea
Christian Pulisic joined Chelsea in a £57.6m move from Borussia Dortmund but has been loaned back to the German club for the remainder of the 2018-19 season. The arrival of the American to the Stamford Bridge is being viewed by many as the club preparing for a life without Eden Hazard, rather than the addition of a player to play alongside the Belgian.

A number of English clubs including Liverpool and Arsenal were previously linked with the American but Chelsea successfully snapped up the youngster. The new Blues recruit has found his first-team opportunities limited this season by the emergence of England international Jadon Sancho who joined Dortmund from Manchester City.
Pulisic is just 20 years of age with his best is yet to come and under a manager like Maurizio Sarri, he is only expected to reach his maximum potential as Chelsea.
