Christian Pulisic has joined the growing number of players to leave Chelsea this summer after completing a move to AC Milan. </p>
<p>
The 24-year-old midfielder has signed a contract with the Serie A giants until June 30 2027, with an option to extend for a further year. </p>
<p>
Pulisic spent four years at Stamford Bridge after joining from Borussia Dortmund in 2019, making 145 appearances and scoring 26 goals for the Blues. </p>
<p>
One of those goals was in the 2021 Champions League semi-finals against Real Madrid, which helped Chelsea into the final where they beat Manchester City. </p>
<p>
The United States international also won the European Super Cup and Club World Cup with Chelsea the following season. </p>
<p>
Pulisic, who has made 60 appearances for his country and helped them reach the knockout stages of last year's World Cup, will link back up with former Chelsea team-mate Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who joined Milan last month. </p>
