Christian Pulisic

Christian Mate Pulisic (Croatian: Pulišić; born September 18, 1998) is an American professional soccer player who plays as a winger, attacking midfielder and forward for Serie A club AC Milan and the United States national team. Regarded as one of the best North American players of all time, he is nicknamed "Captain America" and known for his dribbling, directness, and playmaking.

Born and raised in Hershey, Pennsylvania, Pulisic began his professional career at Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund, where he progressed quickly through the team's youth academy, featuring in only 15 youth games. After being promoted to the senior team in January 2016 at age 17, he became the then-youngest player to score multiple goals in Bundesliga history.

His involvement began increasing dramatically in the following 2016–17 season, where he was a mainstay in the Dortmund team that won the DFB-Pokal. His performances made him runner-up of the 2018 Kopa Trophy, presented to the world's best player under the age of 21.
