Jose Mourinho Becomes the Reason for Christian Pulisic Failing to Join Manchester United

DBasia.news –  Christian Pulisic, before joining Chelsea, apparently had the chance to join Manchester United. Pulisic failed to go to United because of Jose Mourinho.

Christian Pulisic is predicted as one of the best talents playing in European football. Although only 20 years old, but Pulisic has the speed and ability of individuals above average.

Not surprisingly, Chelsea dared to spend 60 million euros to bring the player in the middle of last season. Pulisic was prepared to replace Eden Hazard, who moved to Real Madrid.

Apparently, in the Premier League, it is not only Chelsea who are stuck in Pulisic. Former Pulisic coach while still in Brackley Town, Robin Walker, revealed that Manchester United had also made an offer.

“I am a Chelsea supporter. I grew up in London and supported the Blues. When in Dortmund last year, I asked him to come,” Robin Walker said as reported by the Daily Mail.

“He did not join Manchester United because of Jose Mourinho. His father did not like Mourinho because the manager did not orbit young players. That’s when I came in with the question: What about London?”

Jose Mourinho is indeed one of the coaches who rarely gives young players the chance. The Portuguese manager often puts experienced players on his team.

So far, Christian Pulisic has not been able to bring Chelsea to victory. Most recently, the Blues played 1-1 at home to Leicester City in the second week of the Premier League match.
