Chelsea signing Christian Pulisic is relishing the chance to prove himself on the "greatest stage" in the Premier League.
The 20-year-old American got a taste for the competition while living in England for a year at the age of seven and continued to watch it after returning to the United States.
He is keen to impress on these shores in 2019/20, having agreed a transfer from Borussia Dortmund during the January window before finishing the season on loan in Germany.
"The Premier League was what I was able to watch growing up in the US, and it is always where I wanted to be," Pulisic told Chelsea's official website.
"Now I just felt that it was the right step [to join Chelsea].
"This is the biggest stage. It is incredible to come in and be in England and part of this league.
"If you want to prove yourself it is the greatest stage to be on."
