Pulisic has been in fine form for Chelsea this season, showing himself to be one of many exciting youngsters coming through in Frank Lampard’s side this season.
Given the size of the task for Chelsea this weekend, they could really do with Pulisic being fit and ready to take on Manchester City, but it seems like that won’t be possible, as noted by the Sun.
Chelsea have other options in attack such as the in-form pair of Willian and Mason Mount, while Callum Hudson-Odoi could also be another candidate to take Pulisic’s place in attack.
