Will he be a £200m player? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0u 2zpnjoNw

>>77909635
Fact is, market has gone crazy after the Nerman transfer.
One could argue the real price of Nerman is not 222 m €. But you must context this with the Higuain and Lukaku sales. Who are pure strikers, limited and only good at this. Nerman is way more than that. In this light, Nerman is easily worth 222 m €
222 m € is now the upper limit for a player. So, you take Dembélé. All memes aside, he is more useful than Lukaku, and younger. His price is logically between Lukaku and Nerman.
Now take Pulisic. He's American, very important. Because he can open the market of the richest country in the world. When you see that NHL (a fringe sport) makes as much as money than PL, one can wonder, what could Pulisic achieve from an economic standpoint?
On this alone, I think Pulisic is a bankable, marketable player, for the US market.

>>77909680
Could easily see him going to PSG, and them marketing the "American in Paris" angle.

he's going to bayern for free and there's NOTHING dirtmund can do

>>77909687
Hmmmmmmm....

>>77909686
PSG don't really need forwards. Pulisic would be wasted if he goes there, but it would be a massive publicity stunt.
Best thing for Pulisic is probably to stay at Dortmund for a few years, develop into a complete forward, win things with his club, shine in the WC.
Then, in 2023, move in MLS? Pushed by politics, FIFA and investors. We don't know yet the 2026 WC host, but there is a joint bid US-Mexico-Canada.
The popularity of "soccer" would take a massive kick with a star like Pulisic (and friends) playing in MLS, winning CONCACAF stuff
Remember how Nerman moved to PSG: because he has been paid by Qatar to be the figurehead of the Qatar WC, same thing could happen with Pulisic

>>77909696
just like hummels right

>>77909687
because that worked out so great for players in the past.

Move to Dinamo Zagreb this winter you read it first

>>77909716

>>77909635
it's either Bayern or the Premier league for him.

>>77909706
>Then, in 2023, move in MLS?

No.

There may be more money in MLS in a few years time, but not the kind of money that can lure a world class player in his prime there, even if he is an American.

Soccer is gaining popularity in the US, but it's not at the level where MLS can compete with the big Euro leagues and the main American sports.

>>77909680
I feel kinda bad for him.

He's pretty good but most of his value comes from being american so teams that are actively trying to work the market are into him mostly for that reason.

>>77909635
Maybe, he's a burger after all.

Trust me I know the power big countries have when overhyping players, Brazil does it all the time.

If you told me that the club would be bankrolled by an oil country desperate to improve its reputation? Yes.

PSG (and Monaco) do not in any way represent L1's current financial power/attractiveness/level.

... yet. I don't know if you have noticed, but people talk a lot more about Ligue euh now that Neymar is there.
PSG is a locomotive for the rest of the League. Even Anne Hidalgo acknowledges Neymar huge salary is a necessary evil to make >us more famous

>>77911324
>PSG is a locomotive for the rest of the League

That's a meme, they're a locomotive only for themselves. You think good players will pass up playing in a superior league for better money just to play against Neymar? You think that Neymar alone will help multiply the TV rights by 2 or 3 so the rest of the league can get competitive?

No one cared about Ligue 1 before and no one will now, it's only about Nerman and PSG to a lesser extent. It'll be known as the league where Neymar chased money, maybe.

And since when is Hidalgo's opinion on ANYTHING worth a shit?

>>77911422
>You think that Neymar alone will help multiply the TV rights by 2 or 3 so the rest of the league can get competitive?
Yes. You're a fool if you don't believe Ligue 1 won't be more and more prestigious.
Why? Because Ligue 1 is the last of the 5 main leagues to be in that state. Even the Portugal league is somehow more prestigious. Investors are coming. First Frank McCourt. Then it will grow
Mark my words, mon ami.

WTF I love Pulisic now.

Pulisic will be the most expensive player in about 3 years if nothing abnormal happen to him.

I know these things.

funny how people ITT rate a player with such average statistics, but heh, he's """american""" and """white"""

>>77911213
KEK, why would i had tears ? i have dembele and mbappe who are already way better than your benched player.
>>77911238
what the fuck are you even talkin about, he played 29 matches and scored 3 goals, it's fuckin bottom average for a plyer OLDER than mbappé, KEK

>>77911136
I could legitimately see BVB pulling out all the stops to keep Pulisic. He's the kind of player that can permanently increase the net worth of their club by growing them a bandwagon in the US. Pulisic is a once in a lifetime opportunity that I'm sure they'll go to extraordinary lengths to try and keep.

At the end of the day though, it's gonna come down to where Pulisic wants to go, but I believe Dortmund will attempt to offer him things they wouldn't offer any other player.

I swear to fuck if this cunt mentions because he's american

It's like you don't know what fads are. By next month the only people still discussing him will be the French and the Hues.
China thought throwing money around would attract a lot of attention and it did for a few months. Just like Russia did. The main difference is that these were multiple clubs doing it to try and improve the league overall. It didn't happen.
Now you're trying to use PSG and Ligue 1 as if they're interchangeable. Ligue 1 doesn't become more desirable just because Mememar is there. If that were case players would have been throwing themselves at Eibar, not just to play against Nerman, but Messi, Suarez and Ronaldo too. Did you see that happening?

He helped decide a cup final at 18.

Why would he take a step down in his career?

>>77909635
He's going to real Madrid in 2 years to begin eternal rivalry with Dembele. Screenshot this.

PULISGOD PULISGOD

He'll be at Stoke in 3 years.

I can imagine Pulišić playing for Philadelphia Union in 15 years

>if his early form is anything to go by he'll smash those numbers
No, it's not. Lots of people scored 2 goals in 3 games: it doesn't mean they scored 30 goals in a 45 game season.

>>77909635

>>77916082
Not true at all.

>>77916819
>scored 2 goals in 3 games at age 18

If Pulisic wasn't American he would be the best young talent in all but 3-5 nations.
Stop >muh Merrican hype babbying him.
He is barely 18 and already a key player at the 8th most successful club in Euope.
Easily the best young player in the Bundesliga.

>>77914116
Unlike China or Russia, France is right in the middle of Europe. Everybody would be interested in Ligue euh if we had 2+ competitive teams

>>77924189
Not to mention that players would prefer to live in France over Germany and England. Probably the second best place to live as a young footballer after Spain. Italy a close 3rd.

>>77925310
Stupid question.
Try to be realistic and not delusional from the neymar meme transfer.
Screencap this, see you next year.

>>77925336
Ligue 1 is getting more competitive, so more watchable, more marketable. This is not a delusion. People will watch Neymar play against our small teams and our small teams will be more known and liked. Ligue 1 will become more popular. It will bring money for our small clubs which will be able to keep their players
It's not about replacing any other league, especially Bundesliga. So don't fear, my dear Buyern customer, your league is safe

>Ligue 1 isn't even a top 5 league anymore

>>77925369
Stop making fun of my League and answer me >>77924933

8 goals 3 assists in 25 games while playing out of position (LW), and in the next year he was already scoring hattricks against the likes of Real Madrid.
