WASHINGTON For some 25 years, American players have been carving out a modest presence overseas.Many have been goalkeepers and defensive types. Some have arrived considering scoring portfolios forged in Major League Soccer. Several were dual nationals, born and trained abroad.Intra-European transfers involving king's ransoms and glamorous suitors were reserved for the likes of David Beckham, Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar; for Manchester United, real Madrid and Barcelona; for Brazilians, Argentinians and Spaniards. categorically not for Americans.Christian Pulisic, 20, busted that mould upon Wednesday considering English Premier League titans Chelsea signed him from Borussia Dortmund for 58 million (S$99.7 million).The early payment was more than three times the previous baby book for a US performer - in May 2017, defender John Brooks left German club Hertha Berlin to sign for Wolfsburg for 20 million (S$31 million) - and re the 25th largest in the sport's history. Pulisic will remain considering Dortmund this season, then in August become the first high-profile American, not including goalkeepers, to dogfight occurring for an English heavyweight.Brian McBride and Clint Dempsey did score goals for Fulham, but the Cottagers perform in the shadows of London brethren. Claudio Reyna and DaMarcus Beasley liked the ball at their feet. John Harkes played for trophies at Wembley. Tim Howard, Kasey Keller and Brad Friedel were world-class goalkeepers.Pulisic has always been different. His electric skill set - initiated in Hershey, Pennsylvania, by parents who played at George Mason academe and took him abroad in in front 2015 - belies the reputation of Americans creature difficult workers, supporting actors and little else.Amid gains in the sport back the tardy 1980s, the US has developed few creative male prospects suited for the world's brightest stages.Where has Freddy Adu gone?In terms of vigorous attackers, the closest comparison to Pulisic was Landon Donovan. Their acceleration and confidence considering the ball are eerily similar.Donovan, however, spent the bulk of his decked career in San Jose and Los Angeles back retiring last year, never making a European breakthrough despite opportunities in Germany and England.As a teenager, Pulisic was starting regularly in the Bundesliga, which sits in the top tier of European circuits considering the Premier League, Spain's LaLiga, Italy's Serie A and France's Ligue 1. Dortmund afterward typically qualify for the Champions League, the continent's elite club competition.Given his high-level experience at such a pubertal age, he was one of the top five transfer targets this winter despite his point role at Dortmund. Bumped from the line-up by English pubertal Jadon Sancho, he has appeared in 11 of 17 league matches, starting five and scoring once. He has continued to start in the Champions League.Given his profile and cost, the Blues, whose last of six English titles came in 2017, are re definite of thrusting him into the line-up next summer. higher than his contributions upon the field, Chelsea are, no doubt, counting upon a marketing bump. Through pre-season tours and TV exposure, European clubs have made good strides in recent years glamorous to US audiences.Given the historical England-US ties, and that NBC Sports' presentation of the EPL is akin to the National Football League which is still the most-watched sport, Chelsea are eyeing an uptick in freshening and jersey sales.NBC is categorically thrilled roughly building coverage re an daring US player. Two defenders and a defensive midfielder comprise the current US contingent in the EPL.Pulisic's involve is afterward seen as a victory for US men's football which, in the wake of the World mug qualifying fiasco, has fallen off the radar and begun major renovations.Before his transfer, Pulisic was already the centrepiece of the programme. Wearing Chelsea colours and competing in the sport's most well-liked league, he will soon come to a role no American has ever taken.WASHINGTON say
