Liverpool are interested in signing Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic on loan in January, according to 90min.

Having fallen out of favour at Stamford Bridge, the 24-year-old wants to leave the club in pursuit of regular first-team football.

As a result, a number of teams have been touted with interest in the United States international ahead of the winter window.

90min claim both the Reds and Newcastle United are keen on a loan swoop in January.

However, it is said that Chelsea are reluctant to improve a Premier League rival.

Instead, they would prefer to send him overseas. From the Serie A, AC Milan and Inter would be keen to do a deal. It is also thought that Atletico Madrid and former club Borussia Dortmund are also interested. The big issue here is that they all may struggle to cover his wages in full.

Liverpool want Pulisic on loan

Although he has fallen down the pecking order at Chelsea due to the arrival of Raheem Sterling, Pulisic would be a great addition to Jurgen Klopp’s squad.

His attacking threat in the final third is severely underrated, as he can play anywhere across the front-line.

Technically very strong, his rapid pace and consistent strike would suit Liverpool’s style extremely well.

Having discovered the American whilst at Dortmund, Klopp has always had a good word to say about Pulisic. Even when he joined Chelsea, he labelled the attacker a ‘really skilled’ player.

Recently hailed by US teammate and Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams as ‘unbelievable’, the 24-year-old would be a great addition to the Reds squad – especially on a loan deal.
