The Hershey native is leaving the team after four years, with 26 goals, and 145 appearances.

The 24-year-old notably "scored a hat-trick at Turf Moor, becoming only the second American to achieve that feat in the English top flight," the club said in its farewell statement. Adding that he "played a key role in ensuring Chelsea finished in the Premier League top four."

Across the pond, we know him best for his stellar performance on the US Men's National Team at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Although he did suffer a minor injury during the game against Iran, as Daily Voice previously reported

"We wish Christian well and thank him for all his contributions during his time at the club," the club concluded its statement
