Man Utd battling Tottenham and Arsenal over deal to sign Christian Pulisic

Manchester United are battling with Tottenham and Arsenal over a deal to sign AC Milan striker Christian Pulisic Calciomercato.it.

Pulisic arrived at Chelsea promisingly, but incessant injuries left him behind Willian and Pedro in the pecking order. Although he had strong form post-COVID, he never quite got the consistent form to secure a starting spot in the team.

However, since his move to Milan, the 27-year-old has enjoyed an upturn in form, with his performances now showing exactly why he was so highly rated when on Borussia Dortmund’s books.

This season, the American has been one of the standouts for Massimiliano Allegri’s title-chasing Rossoneri, with ten goals and two assists in 20 games in all competitions, attracting interest from several clubs.

According to Calciomercato.it, Man Utd have expressed an interest in signing Pulisic to strengthen their attacking ranks in the next campaign.

Conflict

In what appears to be a boost for the club, the report adds that AC Milan are looking to recoup significant sums from player sales next summer as they look to revamp their squad. Pulisic is one of the options on their list, with the Red Devils now monitoring the situation.

However, the 13-time Premier League champions will face stiff competition for the USMNT captain’s signature as the Italian club claim that Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal will compete with them for the striker’s signature, the report said.

Despite being a key part of the Rossoneri since his arrival, the Italian giants are open to offers and could let him leave for £47 million in the summer amid interest from United, the report claims.

Pulisic would make an immediate difference at the club, providing added depth and a reliable scoring threat alongside Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha in attack.

As the popular saying goes, “If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em.” A possible move to Old Trafford would also give Pulisic the chance to end his poor record against United, having failed to win or score goals in his eight appearances against United.
