Pulisic completes £20m move from Chelsea to AC Milan

Pulisic has already trained with his new team and head coach Stefano Pioli

USA forward Christian Pulisic has completed his £20m move from Chelsea to Italian club AC Milan.

He joined Chelsea from Borussia Dortmund in a £57.6m move in 2019 that made him the most expensive player from North America.

But Pulisic became surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge, scoring only once in his final season.

The forward found the net 26 times in 145 games at Chelsea and played in the 2021 Champions League final win over Manchester City.

"We wish Christian well and thank him for all his contributions during his time at the club," a Chelsea statement read.

The Pennsylvania native has also been capped 60 times by his country.

His switch to Serie A sees him linking up with former Chelsea team-mate Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who has also joined Milan this summer.

Chelsea have parted ways with several established first-team players this summer.

• Loftus-Cheek 'wasn't content' with Chelsea role
• Azpilicueta joins Atletico after Chelsea departure
• Chelsea must 'deliver from day one' - Pochettino

The departures have included Kai Havertz moving to Arsenal, Mateo Kovacic joining Manchester City and Mason Mount making the switch to Manchester United.

Cesar Azpilicueta has joined Atletico Madrid on a free transfer, while other exits have seen Kalidou Koulibaly, Edouard Mendy and N'Golo move to the Saudi Pro League, joining Al-Hilal, Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad respectively.
