Tottenham frontrunners to sign Christian Pulisic
Spurs Eye American Star to Bolster Attacking Options
Tottenham Hotspur have emerged as frontrunners in the battle to sign AC Milan winger Christian Pulisic, with several Premier League heavyweights circling the American international.
According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, Spurs are in ‘pole position’ ahead of Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United to secure the 27-year-old’s signature this summer.
Injury Crisis Prompts Transfer Hunt
The North London club’s attacking depth has been severely tested this season. With Mohammed Kudus, Dejan Kulusevski, Wilson Odobert and Richarlison all battling fitness issues, Tottenham’s campaign has faltered dramatically. Brennan Johnson’s January departure has only compounded their struggles, leaving the Lilywhites dangerously close to the relegation zone.
Why Pulisic Makes Sense
The USMNT captain has been in sensational form for Milan, bagging 10 goals and two assists in 21 appearances across all competitions. Playing primarily as a second striker in Sergio Conceição’s system, Pulisic has showcased his versatility and clinical finishing.
Valued at £52 million by Transfermarkt, the former Chelsea man enters the final year of his Milan contract this summer, potentially forcing the Rossoneri’s hand if negotiations stall.
What’s Next for Spurs?
With interim boss Igor Tudor steadying the ship following Thomas Frank’s dismissal, Tottenham face a crucial North London derby against Arsenal next weekend. Securing Pulisic’s services could prove pivotal in rebuilding their squad and climbing away from danger.
Whether Spurs can fend off competition from their Premier League rivals remains to be seen, but they’ve certainly made the first move.
