Christian Pulisic has signed for Chelsea in a deal worth 57.7million, the Premier League club have confirmed.The 20-year-old winger will stay at Borussia Dortmund on loan until the end of the season before linking up with the Blues for the 2019/20 campaign.

Appearances – 5 (6)Goals – 1Assists – 2Shots per game – 0.6Key passes per game – 0.8Dribbles per game – 1.7Crosses per game – 0.5Tackles per game – 0.4WhoScored.com rating – 6.76An immediately obvious cause for concern is Pulisic’s goal return. One goal in 483 minutes is considerably sub-par, especially considering Dortmund have netted 44 times this season.This is not due to a lack of game time, either. Last season the United States winger bagged just four league goals in 2313 minutes of football.Pedro’s goals will need replacing – the Spaniard already has six in the league this season at a rate of one goal every 157 minutes.Pedro 2018/19 league stats

Pedro and Willian are averaging 0.8 and 1.2 tackles per game, while Pulisic is making just 0.4 at Dortmund.
