AC Milan have struck an agreement with Chelsea to acquire the services of Christian Pulisic, according to Calciomercato.
Milan will reportedly pay a total of €20 million including add-ons to land the American, who is expected to put pen to paper on a four-year deal.
Pulisic had earlier hinted at a potential move away from Chelsea while on duty with the United States national team in last month’s Gold Cup tournament where he captained his side to glory.
“Right now, I am focused on the national team. I want to be here – I want to win games,” the 24-year-old was quoted as saying by football.london.
“When the time comes, obviously, I need to also rest after this game a bit, get away from the game a bit and enjoy my breaks and my family, all those kinds of things.
“And then, once it’s time to make decisions and then see what options I have, then I will deal with it then.”
Pulisic will be Milan’s fourth summer signing following the earlier arrivals of Marco Sportiello, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Luka Romero.
Having struggled for both form and fitness last season, he will be looking to get his career back on track under Stefano Pioli.
Ligue 1 outfit Olympique Lyon attempted to snap up Pulisic by submitting a €25m offer but the American already had his heart set on a move to San Siro after agreeing personal terms with Milan.
Pulisic’s impending departure continues a large summer exodus at Chelsea which has seen the Blues recoup over €200m following some high-profile departures.
Milan are also negotiating with Villarreal and Valencia for Samuel Chukwueze and Yunus Musah respectively, while AZ Alkmaar’s Tijjani Reijnders is also on their radar.
