About Christian Pulisic

The 28-year-old Christian Pulisic, often nicknamed "Captain America", was born on September 18, 1998, in Hershey, Pennsylvania. He is 1.78 meters tall. He primarily plays as a right winger but is also capable of operating on the left wing or as an attacking midfielder. His father, Mark, and his cousin, Will, are both professional footballers. He holds dual citizenship in the United States and Croatia.

Having lived in England as a child, Pulisic spent time in the youth academy of non-league club Brackley Town at the age of seven. After returning to the United States, he played for the youth academies of several smaller clubs; notably, in 2010, he also participated in a five-day trial camp hosted by Chelsea.

In February 2015, Pulisic joined the  Borussia Dortmund youth academy, and in January of the following year, he completed his first-team debut by coming on as a substitute. 

During his four-year stint with BVB, Pulisic won the DFB-Pokal once. His standout performances drew intense interest from major Premier League clubs, most notably Chelsea and Liverpool.

In July 2019, Pulisic agreed to join Chelsea for £58 million.

Over his four-year spell with the Blues, Pulisic won the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup, and the FIFA Club World Cup once each. He also reached the FA Cup final three times and the League Cup final once. However, he frequently faced criticism due to persistent injury issues and inconsistent form.

In July 2023, Pulisic joined AC Milan for a fee of €22 million.

Since joining I Rossoneri, Pulisic has so far made 142 appearances for the Serie A giants across all competitions, scoring 44 goals and providing 28 assists, where he has won the Supercoppa Italiana once and reached the Coppa Italia final once.
