Still only 18 and already a crucial first team player for Borussia Dortmund, Christian Pulisic is considered to be the next big hope for the US Men’s National team. Capable of playing as an attacking midfielder or a winger, Pulisic already holds a host of records including being the youngest ever player to score a brace in the Bundesliga.

A modern day number 10, Pulisic is blessed with a low centre of gravity and is capable of leaving opposition defenders flat footed with his brilliant dribbling skills and pace. The young American also has an eye for goal and he has already scored 3 goals for the US National team and 4 goals for Dortmund in the Bundesliga.
