Barcelona eyeing January move for Chelsea's Christian Pulisic?

Barcelona are plotting a January swoop for Chelsea attacker Christian Pulisic, according to a report.

The USA international has struggled for consistent starts under Thomas Tuchel since his arrival from Borussia Dortmund, although injuries have not helped his cause.

As a result, Pulisic is being tipped to seek pastures new in 2022, with Liverpool supposedly keeping a close eye on his situation in West London.

However, with the Blues thought to be reluctant to sell to a direct rival, Mundo Deportivo claims that a loan move to Barca could be on the cards in January.

The report adds that Pulisic would be open to an exit from Stamford Bridge, and the Blaugrana are also eyeing moves for Cesar Azpilicueta and Antonio Rudiger as free agents next summer.

Pulisic has two goals and one assist from nine appearances in all tournaments this term, and his Chelsea deal does not expire until 2024.
