Lampard picks out Pulisic for special praise

Cape Town - Frank Lampard believes Christian Pulisic is a player with 'huge potential' after he impressed in the 5-3 pre-season friendly victory over Red Bull Salzburg on Wednesday.

The USA international was signed by Chelsea in January before they loaned him back to Borussia Dortmund for the rest of the season.

Pulisic scored twice and won a penalty in a rampant first-half display and Lampard was extremely impressed with what he saw from the 20-year-old.

“I was very impressed with the way that he took the goals,” Lampard said of Pulisic after the match.

“As a winger in the Premier League, he has to adapt to that league.

“He is young but with huge potential and I am happy for him.”
