Chelsea Confirms Christian Pulisic to Miss Months With Knee Injury

U.S. men’s national team star Christian Pulisic is set to miss the next few months after sustaining a knee injury.

Earlier this week, manager Graham Potter said the forward would likely miss weeks, but the coach updated the diagnosis on Wednesday.

“Christian’s going to be out for a couple of months we think,” Potter said in his prematch press conference. “Hopefully it will be less, but that’s the timeframe there.”

Pulisic was taken off midway through the first half of Thursday’s Premier League loss to Manchester City when he sustained the injury during a challenge from defender John Stones.
