Pulisic was heavily linked with Liverpool in the summer, while Chelsea were also credited with an interest in the 20-year-old.

However, Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport claim that the USA international is now on Juventus’ radar as well.

Despite Juventus’ CEO Giuseppe Marotta leaving the Italian giants, the club are still looking to keep active in the transfer market, and Pulisic has been identified as a suitable attacking reinforcement.

The Borussia Dortmund star has contributed 14 goals in 103 appearances for the Bundesliga club, leading to links with several of Europe’s biggest sides.

With his contract expiring in 2020, and the player giving no indication he will extend, clubs are ready to pounce on his situation.

Jurgen Klopp is known to be an admirer of Pulisic, but Liverpool opted to sign Xherdan Shaqiri in the summer transfer window instead.

However, that doesn’t rule out a future move to Anfield for the American, as he has been tipped to sign an advanced deal with the club similar to the one, which saw Naby Keita join the Reds this summer.
