Christian Pulisic’s former coach Robin Walker has revealed that the new Chelsea signing turned down Manchester United in favour of a move to Stamford Bridge.
He told the Telegraph that the former Dortmund forward didn’t want to sign for United because Jose Mourinho was in charge.
“When I was in Dortmund last year, I told him that he had to come. He wouldn’t go to Manchester United because of Jose Mourinho. His father couldn’t stand Mourinho, because he didn’t promote young players.
“It was at that point I asked: ‘What about London? That’s where it’s at.’ I was trying to sell the city. His agent agreed, saying: ‘When you make these decisions, it’s all about investment and property.’ I was delighted that he did sign.”

He didn't want to join Jose's Man Utd bcoz he didn't uses youth but joined Chelsea,Chelsea are not known for youth either.He agreed to join them in January,the same time CHO wanted to leave for lack of playing time,and Chelsea fans were unhappy with Sarri for not using youth players like CHO and RLC Definitely this article is pointless.
