Chelsea’s Christian Pulisic has ‘an incredibly bright future’ ahead of him in England

USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter believes that Christian Pulisic has ‘an incredibly bright future’ ahead of him following his move to Chelsea.

Pulisic was signed by Chelsea in January, but stayed at Borussia Dortmund for the remainder of the season.

The American international will link up with his new team-mates in the coming weeks following the USA’s participation in the Golf Cup.

“He [Pulisic] has the ability to influence the game from different positions and can unlock defences whether as a No 10 or going wide.

“With the coaching he’ll get in England, he has an incredibly bright future."

“There’s a reason he’s going to the Premier League,” team-mate Cristian Roldan added. “He not only has quality but also humility.

"He’s a fantastic guy off the pitch. He’s still a kid but the fact that he bonds with us over the slightest thing is incredible. He doesn’t act like a big star.”
