Manchester United have had a shambolic start to the season – losing their first two games to Brighton and Brentford.

United have been unable to sign their transfer targets this summer, and are now targeting a move for Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic.

Pulisic has complained of his peripheral role at Chelsea and wants a starting role at the club.

So far this season, the American has come off the bench in Chelsea’s first two games of the season.

Reports claim Pulisic is worried about his situation at Chelsea, especially as it’s a World Cup year.

The Daily Mail has claimed that Chelsea are sympathetic to Pulisic’s situation, and owner Todd Boehly will only allow the move under one condition – that is if Pulisic would go on loan but he must first extend his Chelsea contract.

The 23-year-old has two years to run on his contract, which has Chelsea worried.

At the end of this season, he would only have a year left in his contract, which means Chelsea cannot sell him for a significant fee.

However, the BBC has claimed that Chelsea will block Pulisic’s move to Manchester United as they’re not willing to let him join a direct rival.

It’s hard to see Chelsea letting Pulisic leave the club, as the club has already let go of Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner. Hakim Ziyech is also being linked with an exit as well as Callum Hudson-Odoi.

Letting all these players leave in one summer would definitely be dangerous for Chelsea, in what is a very long season ahead.
