Real Madrid keen on signing Chelsea attacker in the summer due to his pace and versatility

Real Madrid are interested in signing Chelsea star Christian Pulisic in the summer, with the reigning European champions seeking depth in wide positions, according to Spanish media outlet Defensa Central via Daily Mail.

Pulisic is expected to leave Chelsea at the end of the season amid a struggle for form coupled with the Blues’ recent influx of attacking talent.

Real Madrid are reportedly keen on signing the 24 year old Pulisic due to his pace and versatility.

Pulisic joined Chelsea in 2019 for £58million in a move from German side Borussia Dortmund.

He has struggled for consistency since joining the Blues, notching up 26 goals in 136 appearances.

Pulisic has made 16 appearances in the Premier League since season, but has only made six league starts for the Blues.

Pulisic is currently recovering from a knee injury sustained during Chelsea’s 1-0 defeat to Manchester City on January 5 and faces an uphill battle to regain a place in Chelsea’s starting eleven, with Mykhailo Mudryk, Joao Felix and Noni Madueke among those to join the club in January.
