Today we have announced the major new signing of Chelsea and United States superstar Christian Pulisic. Regarded as one of the most exciting young talents in world football, Christian is the youngest ever USMNT captain and is the first American born winner of the UEFA Champions League following his transfer from Dortmund to Chelsea, a move that made him the most valuable U.S. player in history. He has the most goals and assists of any American player in the UCL and is the youngest ever American goalscorer in the tournament. We are excited to welcome Christian to the PUMA Family.
A great talent
The electrifying winger has trailblazed his path from Pennsylvania to Dortmund to London, breaking numerous records since his Bundesliga debut in 2016. Raised in Hershey, Pennsylvania Christian spent a year in England when he was seven years old, where he further fueled his passion and love for the game after joining Brackley Town’s youth setup. It was there that he set himself the goal of becoming a professional player.
Both PUMA and Pulisic Pledge support Soccer Growth in the U.S.
Having achieved so much at such a young age, Christian has been a pioneer of the game in the U.S. and wants to inspire the next generation of young U.S. players. Leading into the 2026 World Cup™, Christian together with PUMA has made a commitment to grow the sport through various programs and opportunities for youth athletes in the U.S., including product donations for underserved youth, establish various camps and clinics, rehabilitating fields and more.
