Cicero Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 Quote Chelsea or Liverpool could reportedly buy Borussia Dortmund's Christian Pulisic for £70 million, provided they are willing to let him remain with the Bundesliga side until the end of the season. According to Matt Law at the Daily Telegraph, Dortmund will not allow the United States international to leave in January, but they are willing to negotiate a deal "if they receive a big enough bid." Pulisic's deal at Dortmund expires in 2020, and it's said he has attracted interest from both of the Premier League teams and Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain.
Cicero Posted November 27, 2018 Author Posted November 27, 2018 70 million a bit steep, but I reckon it could be negotiated for less. Bloke can't even get in the first XI now.
Subscriber JoshBRFC+ Posted November 28, 2018 Subscriber Posted November 28, 2018 70 Million Dortmund will be laughing their Yellow cocks off.
IgnisExcubitor Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 When he becomes available, I believe the owners will go all out for him. The American owners see a huge commercial potential in him. Klopp rates him highly as well.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 29, 2018 Subscriber Posted November 29, 2018 It's another new transfer window so I can't even tell if 70 million is ridiculous or not. 70 million could be the new 25 million now for all we know.

Cicero Posted December 3, 2018 Author Posted December 3, 2018 Journalists saying we've put in a bid. Hope our low balling tactics is put to good use on this one.
Dave Posted December 16, 2018 Posted December 16, 2018 Chelsea are set to offload Callum Hudson-Odoi in January if they win the race to sign Borussia Dortmund forward Christian Pulisic, according to The Mail On Sunday. The report suggests Pulisic is also a target for Liverpool.
DNA Posted December 16, 2018 Posted December 16, 2018 Given Willian's age and decline, Pulisic can be a first team player at Chelsea, Liverpool don't need him and won't be able to negotiate in the same way with Salah/Mane both in their mid-twenties.
True Blue Posted December 17, 2018 Posted December 17, 2018 Only 20 years old, only have Willian who is 30, Pedro who is 31 and Eden who is 27. We also have Odoi but he never gets a chance and he will surely be loaned out. Refreshment of the wing department is a must.
Cicero Posted December 17, 2018 Author Posted December 17, 2018 We definitely need an injection of quality on the wing, but for 70 million on a bench player they can fuck off.
Cicero Posted December 17, 2018 Author Posted December 17, 2018 Reports in Spain stating he has agreed to join an English club. What's funny is that media outlets think it's Liverpool and state that he wants to be reunited with former boss Jurgen Klopp. Now, this just goes to show how fucking dumb the media are. Liverpool may indeed be interested, but it was Tuchel that worked with Pulisic FFS. Not Klopp

Anyway, don't think we really need him and especially not at that price.

LFCMadLad Posted December 17, 2018 Posted December 17, 2018 6 minutes ago, Cicero said: When? At Dortmund, although only briefly. Klopp was the one who took pulisic out of the youth team to train with the first team.
The Artful Dodger Posted December 17, 2018 Posted December 17, 2018 Klopp left before he signed for Dortmund didn't he? Wouldn't surprise if Klopp could use his Dortmund contacts to influence a deal though but he's really not needed at Liverpool.

Klopp left shortly after promoting Pullisic to the first team squad. Google it.

He played one training session under Klopp. Pulisic even said he personally didn't know him. It was Tuchel that brought him to be a 1st team regular.

He'd be a squad player at best whereas he'd have a clear run into the first team at Chelsea which will probably appeal more to him. Can't see us spending £70m on a rotation player.

Maybe not but I think the fee is so high, not just because of his talent/potential, but because by signing him you are also tapping into the American market which is obviously very lucrative.
