Serie A giants AC Milan have, on Thursday, announced the signing of another high-profile member of the first-team setup at Chelsea.
The player in question? Christian Pulisic.
Speculation pointing towards United States international Pulisic taking his talents to San Siro has of course been rampant in the media for several weeks now.
This comes after the powers that be at Milan, fresh off sealing a deal for Blues midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek, identified wide-man Pulisic as the ideal addition to the club’s ailing frontline.

And, as alluded to above, this evening, they have borne fruit once more.
