Asked whether he name-checked N’Golo Kante as the player he is looking forward to playing alongside because he knows Hazard will leave, Pulisic said: “That wasn’t the reason I said it. I really do want to play alongside Kante, that’s why I said it. I’ve watched him and he’s a great player. Obviously I’d be really excited to play with Hazard, too. He’s a fantastic player.
“I know what I’m good at. I want to just show my skills, my pace, my quickness and creativity to score goals and make assists. I’m a good team guy who’ll give it everything.”
Pulisic’s desire to entertain is underlined when he named the players who inspired him as a youngster. “The main ones were Luis Figo, Ronaldinho and Zinedine Zidane,” he said.
“They just loved the game. Something about watching them play, it seemed so simple, so fun to them. Something about that attacking, fun style.”
