Pulisic has been earning plaudits for his performances as a winger for Borussia Dortmund and the USA national team over the past year. The American international is just 19 years of age but has already been headlining the newspapers for his talent.

Recently, he was awarded the USA Player of the Year award for a sensational calendar year where he broke into Dortmund's first team as well as the national team.

The young starlet has been on fire for the national team despite the team failing to qualify for the World Cup next year. He has managed to score nine goals in 20 appearances for the team and he will be primed to make up for lost time in 2022.

The pacey winger is highly rated for his quick dribbling and the ability to take on players and draw fouls in the process.

It's not every day that a teenager is monitored by the European elite for his signature but Pulisic has been on the wishlist of every major club in Europe. With age on his side and the opportunity to flourish at a club renowned for giving youth a chance, he is bound to be the flag bearer for his country in the coming years.
