Pulisic can still bring it, and during the COVID lockdown era he was arguably among the best players in the Premier League.

His teammate, with both clubs, Ruben Loftus-Cheek seems to think so.
Here’s the video of Pulisic , who came over on a $24 million deal, arriving at the team’s facility to undergo his medical:
