According to reports, Mauricio Pochettino has instructed his incoming Chelsea managers not to offload Christian Pulisic despite speculation linking the American star to Eddie Howe's Newcastle United.
Christian Pulisic is being pursued by Newcastle, but Mauricio Pochettino wants him to stay at Chelsea.
Pochettino reportedly informed Chelsea that he wants to keep Pulisic on the team for the upcoming season, according to CM.
The Times reports that Chelsea will hire the former manager of Tottenham Hotspur as their new manager.
Newcastle reportedly wants to sign Pulisic, who earns £150,000 per week (SalarySport), in the summer transfer window, according to a 90min story from February.
We believe that Christian Pulisic's reported stance by Mauricio Pochettino is a setback for Newcastle United in their attempt to recruit the Chelsea attacker during the summer transfer window.
The 24-year-old, who can play as a winger or an attacking midfielder, has not always had the greatest of times at Chelsea, as we now know.
Injuries have also been a worry.
Although Pochettino, a manager who developed players while at Tottenham, could give the USA international another chance at Chelsea.
The vast and international support of Chelsea will be determined for the upcoming season to at least fight for the Premier League title under Pochettino.
