Sargent, 22, has two goals and two assists in his last five outings for the Canaries, who are languishing at the bottom of the Premier League table, while the 23-year-old Pulisic has been starting regularly for Chelsea and had a goal and an assist against Burnley at the weekend.
Pulisic will not play Thursday despite hefty praise from Tuchel, possibly rested with Chelsea facing Newcastle on Sunday and Lille on Wednesday.
