Christian Pulisic to Manchester United – Good move or bad?

Manchester United are reportedly interested in a sensational summer move for Christian Pulisic, who is currently working his magic, playing for German giants Borussia Dortmund. The young attacker has been subjected to a lot of attention from top clubs across Europe and the Red Devils will have to fight tooth-and-nail to acquire his services. Estimated to be valued at a whopping £88million, there is no doubt that he will be worth every single penny. However, should United investment in him?

At just 19 years of age, Pulisic has established himself in the Dortmund first-team as a regular starter and he can play a variety of attacking roles. Equally strong at patrolling the left and right sides, Pulisic has played as a winger, midfielder and even a defensive midfielder this season so far.

He is extremely strong at dribbling and his playing style oozes old-school charm, which makes him a delight to watch. Known to play short yet effective passes, Pulisic is immensely creative while having a knack for pulling the strings to maintain fluidity in the game.

Hence, it comes as no surprise that he is regarded as his country’s brightest footballing prospect. The USA starlet has a bright future ahead of him and United must do all they can to acquire his signature. He is a gem of a footballer and the fact that he has displayed so much potential at such a young age is enough reason for them to make the plunge and bring him to Old Trafford.

Jose Mourinho has been very generous with allotting game time to young stars in the United squad. In addition to that, he has also played a pivotal role in helping Jesse Lingard unlock his potential, thus making it an ideal environment for a player like Pulisic.

Although his contractual obligations will see him at Dortmund until 2020, United could use a hefty sum to tempt the German club to let him go. When it comes to the requirement, the Red Devils can most certainly make use of Pulisic. His versatility will come as a major advantage and he could work wonders in a United jersey.

His high-pressing attacking runs will delight a lot of United fans and with Alexis Sanchez, Lingard, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford as other options, Mourinho will be able to build a lethal attack.

Pulisic can be an incredible addition to the current United squad. Mourinho’s men have played quite decently this season and continue to grace the second spot. However, if they are to harbour hopes of winning the Premier League trophy anytime soon, a player like Pulisic could prove to be a massive boost.
