Liverpool continue to be linked with Christian Pulisic.
According to The Mirror, Borussia Dortmund winger Christian Pulisic has told teammates that he is heading to the Premier League in 2019 – and Liverpool continue to be linked.
Pulisic, 20, has long been regarded as one of the top young attacking prospects in the world, having burst onto the scene with Borussia Dortmund as a teenager.
The United States international – who has nine goals in 22 caps for his country – is struggling for major playing time with Dortmund this season given the emergence of both Jacob Bruun Larsen and Jadon Sancho, with an exit now on the cards.
Pulisic is out of contract in 2020, meaning Dortmund are likely to sell in the final 18 months of his deal – and The Mirror report that Pulisic has already told teammates that he will be heading to the Premier League in 2019.
Pulisic is believed to be a top target for Liverpool amid claims that Fabinho could be sold to fund a move for the youngster, but they now face competition from Chelsea.
Jurgen Klopp was in charge of Dortmund when they signed Pulisic in 2015, meaning he may be hoping that the lure of a reunion may just help swing the pursuit in Liverpool’s favour.
Capable of providing creativity centrally or from wide areas, Pulisic can provide a real spark to this Liverpool side, and his alleged comments to teammates may leave Liverpool fans expecting him to arrive at Anfield next year.
