DBasia.news – There was no intention at all from Frank Lampard, the Chelsea coach, to loan Christian Pulisic to another club in January 2020.
Pulisic did not enter Chelsea’s squad against Lille in the Champions League. He also hasn’t played in the English League since August.
Lampard gave Pulisic the chance to face Grimsby in a League Cup match, but the Blues tactician was not satisfied with his performance.
However, the manager made sure he would not lend the United States player in January.
“We will not lend Pulisic. With Christian, he came to us with a big step, don’t make mistakes about that, and then he’s only 21 years old, and we have a competitive force here,” Lampard said at Soccerway.
“I said before the last match, I always had a problem with who to choose. People make decisions in training or how they play, and in the final minutes of the game, I want everyone to maintain their performance.”
“With Christian coming here, we have to protect him because of the fact he is still young. Christian, like every player in the squad, needs to work hard in training, keep improving, look at the direction we are going, and show what you can do on match day, and all the players there are the same,” Lampard added.
