idle speculation but hope i can get away with it in the pre match thread but does anyone else read this as dortmund responding to a move?
http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/liverpool-transfer-news-christian-pulisic-borussia-dortmund-a7410611.htmlBorussia Dortmund have expressed their desire to hold onto Liverpool target Christian Pulisic amid rumours of a summer transfer.
The 18-year-old has been in good form for Dortmund so far this season, recording two goals and five assists in twelve games in all competitions since forcing his way into the starting line-up.
Pulisic also holds the records of being the youngest foreigner ever to play in the Bundesliga, as well as the youngest player in the modern era to score for the United States.
The American midfielder has appeared nine times for his country since making his debut towards the end of last season, scoring three goals.
Dortmund manager Thomas Tuchel has had to deal with a series of injuries to key players this season, however the emergence of talented youngsters such as Pulisic has no doubt alleviated his concerns.
Liverpool are reportedly keen to bolster their attacking options after striker Danny Ings was ruled out for the rest of the season with a knee injury, while Senegal forward Sadio Mane will be away at the Africa Cup of Nations for a month.
