Christian Pulisic given Arsenal, Chelsea and Man Utd transfer advice by former USMNT star

Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic's current focus will be on guiding the USA into the quarter-finals of the World Cup as they face the Netherlands in the round of 16. However, the American's club future hangs in the balance and the USMNT captain has been handed advice over his future from a former USA international.

Eric Wynalda, who accumulated 106 caps and scored 34 goals for the USA, has sent a message to Pulisic, saying that he should snub a move across London to Arsenal and instead join Manchester United.

Both of Chelsea's Premier League rivals have been linked with a move for the 24-year-old and a loan in January could be a possibility. However, Wynalda believes that a move to the current Premier League leaders wouldn't be worthwhile for the former Borussia Dortmund attacker.

"I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Chelsea loaned Christian Pulisic out, there’s been a lot of talk that Graham Potter doesn’t like him," Wynalda told VegasInsider.

"I’m not sure Arsenal as a destination is a good fit for Christian Pulisic. But I really like the idea of him going to Manchester United. With Cristiano Ronaldo leaving the club there will be a new vibe with that team."

The winger has been limited to just three starts in the Premier League this season, racking up just over 600 minutes of club football across all competitions with the American's move from Dortmund still failing to bear fruit.

Since making the move to England from Germany, the 24-year-old has scored 26 goals and provided 21 assists in 133 appearances, but just one goal and two assists have come this term.

Representing his national team on the world stage will certainly be a welcome distraction for the American, who has been deemed fit to play against the Netherlands later today after suffering an injury whilst scoring the USA's winner in their decisive match against Iran on Tuesday.

However, once Pulisic returns from Qatar, his future at club level will certainly have to be addressed and a move away certainly shouldn't be ruled out.
