As part of Dortmund’s statement, Michael Zorc, the club’s sporting director, admitted: “It was always Christian’s dream to play in the Premier League. That certainly has to do with his American background, and as a result we were unable to extend his contract.“Against this background, we have decided to accept an extremely lucrative bid by Chelsea, given the low contract maturity.“Christian Pulisic is a character perfect player. I am sure that in the coming months he will do everything in his power to bring his high quality to the team and to achieve his sporting goals with his team-mates Borussia Dortmund.”He has been capped 23 times by the United States and netted on nine occasions, also captaining his country despite his young age.The youngster spent some of his youth in England, playing for Brackley Town as a seven-year-old when his parents moved to these shores for work.He also played for Michigan Rush and PA Classics in his homeland, before joining Dortmund as a 16-year-old in 2015.
