Chelsea forward Christian Pulisic has made an honest admission regarding his future, revealing that he has had conversations with the new owners.
The 23-year-old appeared a frustrated figure last season, having to play as a rotation option for most of the campaign under Thomas Tuchel.
With the Blues back in his home country for pre-season, Pulisic is looking to impress infront of the USMNT fans this summer.

The American did not start as Chelsea faced Club America in their 2-1 victory, but featured from the bench.
He will be hoping to be handed the opportunity to impress from the beginning when they face Charlotte FC on Thursday.
Speaking to the press, Pulisic confirmed that he has met the new Chelsea owners and made an honest admission regarding his future at Stamford Bridge.

"I've had conversations with the owners. It's cool having some American guys around,” he revealed.
“It's mostly focusing on what's going on at Chelsea, what's happening in pre-season."
The winger then continued to admit that he is looking to help the team and is excited for the season ahead with Chelsea.
"We are excited to get the season started. I am focused on how I can help this team right now and in the near future,” he concluded.
Therefore, it looks unlikely that the forward will depart during the summer window, with the 2022 World Cup coming up at the end of the year.

Pulisic will face off against Chelsea teammates Ben Chilwell, Reece James, Mason Mount and Raheem Sterling as the USMNT drew England in the group stages,
The American is excited for the tournament, having revealed back in April that he spoke to Mount about facing off against each other.
"It was funny because my first call, it comes from Mason, who's on my team, we're already talking & excited looking forward to the game,” he recalled.

"I only spoke to a couple of (my teammates) and we were just laughing. We're excited.
"We're good friends, good teammates, and it'll be interesting to play against them in a World Cup, of course, as you can imagine."
It remains to be seen as to whether Pulisic will remain a Chelsea player after their pre-season tour of his home country, but it all points to the American staying at the club at least for the time being.
With Chelsea target Raphinha moving to Barcelona, Pulisic will hope to be handed the chance to impress over the coming season and in preparation for the World Cup.
