What is Christian Pulisic’s net worth?
Though it is difficult to put an exact figure on it, the net value of Pulisic is calculated by the Celebrity Net Worth website to be about $10 million (£8 m).
He is still in his early 20s and at the beginning of his career, so he has not had the opportunity to accumulate considerable wealth, but a figure of $10 m is still important and it can only grow at a high level as long as he plays.
By way of contrast, the net worth of Pulisic is smaller than Raheem Sterling’s (£28m/$36 m) and a fraction of Cristiano Ronaldo’s (over $400 m).
What is Christian Pulisic’s salary?
For the length of his deal with Chelsea, which is expected to run until the summer of 2024, Pulisic is reported to receive £145,000 ($188,000) a week.
From his base club contract alone, he receives nearly £7.5 m (just under $10 m) a year, so his five-year deal with the Blues is worth a total of £37.5 m ($49 m).
Of course, most footballers often negotiate incentives associated with appearance, so his deal is likely to yield an even greater incentive-as long as he plays well.
Along with Timo Werner, Kepa Arrizabalaga and N’Golo Kante, he is one of the top earners at Stamford Bridge.

What charity work does Christian Pulisic do?
Pulisic has engaged actively in a variety of charitable projects and is only too happy to use his position as one of the best-known footballers in America to support others where possible.
After Hurricane Maria left parts of Puerto Rico ravaged in 2017, after learning that a young fan had donated a Christian Pulisic jersey to the relief fund to be raffled off, he got involved in a campaign to raise funds. The playmaker gifted the young fan with a new signed jersey in response and made a donation to the cause.
He and his USMNT compatriots Weston McKennie and Tyler Adams made donations to Feeding America, a charity that aims to counter food poverty, at the start of the coronavirus pandemic.
In addition, Pulisic partnered up with his sponsor Chipotle at the same time to get food distributed to the workers at the Milton S. Hersey Medical Center, the hospital in Pennsylvania where he was born.
During the Covid-19 crisis, Pulisic also joined the Players Together campaign, which saw them making donations to NHS charities, along with the entire Premier League team.
