Chelsea midfielder Pulisic ponders USA Olympics campaign

Chelsea midfielder Christian Pulisic admits he could commit to the USA's Olympics campaign.

The 20-year-old revealed he was open to the idea although it could see him missing out on Chelsea's pre-season preparations next summer.

"I would never completely count that out because it's a huge honour to play for your country in the Olympics," said Pulisic.

"A lot of factors come into play, I guess, but we'll see."

Clubs are not required to release players for the Olympic football tournament, which will run from July 23 to August 8 next year, at a time when most European teams are gearing up for the new campaign.
