Chelsea will bolster Maurizio Sarri's squad by signing Borussia Dortmund wide player Christian Pulisic, although a fee still has to be agreed with the Bundesliga leaders. Chelsea are hoping to sign Borussia Dortmund star Christian Pulisic in £60million dealHudson-Odoi is the brightest hope from the much-vaunted Chelsea academy but has seen his pathway to the first team blocked. With RB Leipzig and Monaco also tracking Hudson-Odoi, Chelsea risk losing him for a minimal UEFA compensation fee in 18 months time, likely to be around £2m. Sarri has insisted he wants Hudson-Odoi to stay but with Willian, Pedro and Eden Hazard ahead of him as wide players, the arrival of Pulisic will push him further down the pecking order.
