Christian Mate Pulisic (born September 18, 1998) is an American professional soccer player who plays as a winger or attacking midfielder for Serie A club AC Milan and captains the United States national team. Nicknamed “Captain America” by fans and other players, Pulisic is renowned for his dribbling abilities and explosive speed.

Pulisic began his professional career at German club Borussia Dortmund, where he progressed quickly through the team’s youth academy, featuring in only 15 youth games. He was then promoted to the senior team in 2016, at age 17. He featured sparingly in his first season at the club, though became the youngest foreigner to score in the Bundesliga at the age of 17. His involvement increased dramatically in the following season, where he was a mainstay in the Dortmund team that won the 2016–17 DFB-Pokal. In 2018, he finished second in the inaugural Kopa Trophy, given to the best player under age 21.

In January 2019, Pulisic moved to Chelsea in a transfer worth $73 million (£57.6 million), making him the most expensive North American player of all time, and began playing for the club in the 2019–20 season. At 21, he became the youngest Chelsea player to score a hat-trick and the 31st player to record a perfect hat-trick in Premier League history. In 2020, he became the first American player to score in an FA Cup Final. In 2021, he tied Lionel Messi for the record of most fouls won in a UEFA Champions League match with 11. In the same campaign he won the 2020–21 UEFA Champions League, becoming the youngest Chelsea player to score in the semi-finals and the first American to play in a Champions League final. With Chelsea he also won the 2021 UEFA Super Cup and 2021 FIFA Club World Cup.

Pulisic played for the United States at under-15 and under-17 levels, before making his senior national team debut in March 2016 at age 17. He is the youngest player ever to captain the United States national team in the modern era. He reached the final of the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup, where he was named best young player of the tournament. He won the CONCACAF Nations League in 2021 and 2023, winning the best player award of the latter. Individually, he has won a U.S. Soccer Young Male Athlete of the Year award and three U.S. Soccer Male Athlete of the Year awards. He has been called the “face” of American soccer.
