Liverpool and Manchester United are reportedly battling it out for young Borussia Dortmund star, Christian Pulisic, according to The Mirror.
The 19-year-old, who is under contract at “die Borussen” until 2020, has been rumoured to be leaving the Westfalenstadion, with north-west giants Liverpool and Manchester United looking keenly at the young American.
However, they are not alone, with Dortmund’s bitter rivals Bayern Munich also looking to swoop in, as they previously have done with Dortmund recently, namely Mario Götze, Robert Lewandowski and Mats Hummels.
The winger, who plays mainly on the left, would allow support for wide men such as Sadio Mané, Mohamed Salah, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and even Ben Woodburn, with Klopp showing he would have two superb attacking flanks.
If he were to go to Old Trafford, he would be competing against Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata, Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Alexis Sanchez, all of whom have been known to play out wide.
However, Dortmund’s Sporting Diector, Michael Zorc said (via The Mirror):
We plan well beyond the summer with him.
Bayern Munich are reportedly eyeing him as the replacement for Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery, both getting older and heading towards the back end of their careers.
There’ll be absolutely no movement today, but come the summer, Jurgen Klopp could stretch his financial muscles and test the resolve of his former club.
