Christian Pulisic had a good FIFA World Cup campaign with the USMNT. Prior to the World Cup, Pulisic revealed that the USMNT was heading into the tournament with the intention to ‘win to the World Cup’. The American soccer star managed to score one goal and get two assists in the USMNT’s four games.

However, The USMNT came crashing out of the World Cup in the Round of 16, after a surprising loss to the Netherlands. USMNT captain, Tyler Adams revealed that they took too long to find their main starting XI. Prior to the World Cup, the squad’s key players suffered from injuries as well.

Pulisic could have become the main man for Chelsea. The Blues are currently struggling with their performances and injuries. Key players like Raheem Sterling and Armando Broja are also out due to injuries. Chelsea’s striker, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang is also not contributing enough.

Hence, this was Pulisic’s best possible chance to become a focal point and help a struggling Chelsea squad. It remains to be seen if he can make a strong impact after he returns back from this injury.
