I have no idea,” – Pulisic Sr. told Sky Sports. “His agent right now is working and looking, in close relation with me and Christian, and we’re just trying to see what the best phase of his next development will be. Now is the time that the season has just ended that we’ll sit down with Dortmund, we’ll sit down with, I don’t know whether other clubs are in the mix, [and see what] Dortmund’s idea is and their plans for Christian.“
“But there’s nothing concrete. Right now, Christian plays for Dortmund and that’s where he is planning on playing again next year,” he added while acknowledging that Premiere League move is definitely likely at some point in the future.
