Chiellini has argued that Pulisic will be a perfect fit for the Old Lady as they seek to rub shoulders with the European elite next season.

Pulisic has been high on Juve's radar, with the Italian giants wanting Chelsea to include the American in any deal involving Matthijs de Ligt. Chelsea re currently short on defenders and had expressed interest in signing De Ligt.

90 Min reports that De Ligt might be headed to Bayern Munich, but Juventus intend to pressure Chelsea for Pulisic. Todd Boehly might be tempted to listen to offers for the 23-year-old, given that the club is close to finalising a move for Raheem Sterling from Manchester City.

Chiellini believes that Pulisic can cover for Federico Chiesa, who is currently out with a long-term injury.

I think Juventus needs some winger like Pulisic. Pulisic is very good, I think when he starts from the side and comes inside. He could be the fantastic third winger for Juventus. He has improved year by year, he did a fantastic season in Chelsea.

The defender has since joined Los Angeles FC.

Christian Pulisic declines to leave Stamford Bridge despite the club's push to sell him

Sports Brief had earlier reported that Chelsea forward Christian Pulisic has reportedly informed the club that he has no desire to leave despite the Blues' attempts to sell him this summer.

The USA international is staring at an uncertain future at Stamford Bridge after he fell out of favour under Thomas Tuchel.

Chelsea have offered Juventus the duo of Pulisic and Timo Werner in exchange for Matthijs de Ligt. The West Londoners have made De Ligt their top summer priority as they seek to strengthen their backline.
