Transfer rumours are typically all the rage in the days leading up to the opening of the transfer window. However, this time the rumour mills are abuzz about an off-field romantic development, involving former Chelsea forward Christian Pulisic and Hollywood superstar Sydney Sweeney.

Pulisic, who currently plys his trade at AC Milan, is said to be dating Sweeney, the Euphoria and White Lotus series star. According to British tabloid The Sun, Sweeney’s surprising link-up with Pulisic was first reported by Instagram account DNA da Bomba, and was subsequently published in Italy’s leading daily Gazzetta dello Sport.
