Editorial portrait
The story
Born in Hershey, sharpened in Dortmund, refined in Milan. Pulisic has been the face of US Soccer since he was a teenager. In 2026, he gets the one thing he never had: a World Cup on home soil, with the crowd singing his name from Foxborough to Pasadena.
“I've waited my whole life for this tournament.”
— Pulisic
