I am doing everything possible to avoid injury – Pulisic
Chelsea star and American international Christian Pulisic in a recent statement has opened up on his recent injury and how was working hard to prevent future occurrences.
Recall that Pulisic was injured in the Blues’ second game of 2023, a Premier League match against Manchester City, only to return just before the current international break.
He battled with a knee injury which kept him out of 10 games in all competitions, including the away Champions League leg against his former side Borussia Dortmund.
Pulisic revealed it was a challenging period to ride through.
‘This [latest] injury has taught me a lot, and not just this one. I think some of my best moments have been just after coming back from a long-term injury and you know there will always be the people that say, he’s injured all the time. The last year or so I’ve been extremely healthy. I’ve been extremely available,’ Pulisic states.
‘I haven’t just had these little injuries here and there where I’ve been out for a week, or this and that,’ he adds. ‘I’ve been unfortunate to have a couple of serious injuries and it’s unfortunately part of the sport, but I’m doing everything I can to avoid injury and be available as much as I can.’
