I think there is a strong possibility with at least a training call up in Europe after the Summer.

He's gonna bail for Croatia only to grab the end of the bench behind that stacked midfield. Write it in stone.

What? No he's not. Get out of here with that nonsense. He's USA through and through.

I seriously doubt he gets a call but he might get a shot with the U-23 team. Even then I don't think it's likely.

Poland, right?

I want to see him play with the u23s this year. We need Yedlin, Brooks, and Pulisic, if we want to beat Colombia and qualify for the Olympics.

Edit: Never-mind, it is Croatia. I don't know why I was thinking that he had Polish relatives.

Pulisic has already accomplished 3 times what Julian Green did prior to the 2014 WC and JG went and played in the WC (even though it was for cap tying purposes)

Pulisic will be coming to a theater near you by this years end.

What has he done that Green didn't do?

I might be wrong, but was Green placed onto the senior team and had assits/goals prior to the WC? Puslic did/was.

Green subbed on in a CL match, I believe. Pulisic has just as many appearances for Dortmund, one. Pulisic doesn't have any official assists or goals for Dortmund.

His only appearance(s?) came in a friendly, I think. If I had to bet on one guy to break through and be a consistent top flight player, I would bet on CP.

But to say that he's accomplished more, let alone three times more, is patently false.

I think Pulisic had an appearance in a German Cup match when Klopp was manager.

But all of his assists and goals have come from friendlies.

If we play him in Copa America does that count as a FIFA tourney?

According to Transfermarkt, I would assume they're up to date on prospects in the German leagues.

Pulisic has.

A-Jugend Bundesliga West - 8 appearances, 4 goals, and 3 assists.

DFB-Junioren-Pokal - 3 appearances, 1 goal, 2 assists

We do not need to worry about Pulisic flipping to Croatia. He is USA through and through.

Ok. I could be wrong. He may have just been on the bench for that game or brought up to train.

No, since the Copa is a CONMEBOL tournament the US and all other CONCACAF teams are invited guest. As far as FIFA is concerned all games the US plays in it are friendlies and won't cap tie any players.
