Gamble: Christian Pulisic

Real Madrid v Borussia Dortmund - UEFA Champions League
Christian Pulisic

The American international is one of the most exciting youngsters in football.

Pulisic has everything Liverpool is looking for - He is still in his teens, can score and can get past defenders.

Despite only being 19, he is a regular in Dortmund Line up. He repaid his managers faith by scoring thrice and assisting once. He has also created 16 chances for his teammates. His 49 successful dribbles this season is the most by a player in Bundesliga.

In Pulisic, Liverpool can get a hardworking player who is committed to improving his game season after season. This makes him a priceless asset for the future.

He has previously insisted he is happy to stay at Dortmund. But their inconsistent showings could convince him to leave the club, with Liverpool waiting on the wings to pounce.
