Per the report, Chelsea have told Pulisic he is unlikely to leave, there is no offer on the table from Manchester United and that no swap deals are going to happen.

A report from The Daily Mail claimed that Chelsea want to sign Manchester United’s Harry Maguire and have asked if Pulisic could be used in a swap deal for the England center back. But it seems like that isn’t going to happen, as Man United are totally focused on signing Antony to bolster their attack. Over the last few days the 23-year-old has also received interest from Newcastle United, according to a report in The Athletic.

Per the Newcastle report, Pulisic is one of several targets Newcastle are looking at to bolster their attack between now and the end of the summer transfer window on Sept. 1. They have asked if he is available on loan, along with the likes of Armando Broja, Conor Gallagher and Callum Hudson-Odoi.

The Daily Mail has also issued a report claiming that Newcastle’s interest is real but that the Magpies will have to fend off loan interest from Atletico Madrid and Serie A pair Juventus and AC Milan, all three of whom can offer Champions League football.

Christian Pulisic has been a substitute for Chelsea’s opening three Premier League games of the season, coming on in the 64th minute of their heavy defeat at Leeds and barely having a kick. That follows reports from the Guardian that Thomas Tuchel ‘doesn’t trust’ Pulisic.

The USMNT star has previously said he is happy to stay at
