Chelsea may come to regret selling a winger who might make a comeback to English football in a deal valued at more than £50 million.

Chelsea sold Christian Pulisic to AC Milan for €20m (£17m) during the 2023 summer transfer window, ending his stint at the club after a period of inconsistent form and fitness. Both parties agreed it was the right time to move on.

Since then, Pulisic has experienced a remarkable resurgence in Italy, emerging as one of Milan’s standout players over the last two seasons. He concluded the 2023/24 campaign with an impressive 15 goals in 50 appearances and has started the current season even stronger, with 7 goals in his first 15 games.

Interest from Premier League clubs

Premier League sides are monitoring Pulisic’s progress, and a return to England is a possibility, either in January or at the end of the season. Clubs like Liverpool, Manchester United, West Ham, and Arsenal have all been linked with the winger in recent reports. Notably, Pulisic scored against Arsenal in the 2020 FA Cup final, though Chelsea ultimately lost 2-1 after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s decisive brace.

Milan’s valuation and potential move

Italian outlet Calciomercato.com claims that Milan will not let Pulisic leave for a low fee. They reportedly value him at “over €60m (£50m),” a figure close to what Chelsea paid Borussia Dortmund for him in 2019.

One factor that could tempt Pulisic back to the Premier League is his current salary, which stands at just £64,000 a week. English clubs could offer significantly higher wages, making a move increasingly plausible. It remains to be seen if the former Chelsea star will return to England in the

New Year.
