Chelsea star Christian Pulisic is looking to follow on from the impact that David Beckham had on American soccer, and use the World Cup to boost their image globally.
Football, or soccer as it's referred to in North America, has grown massively over the last 15 years. Canada have qualified for their first World Cup since 1986, and more American stars are gracing the best European leagues as their quality continues to increase.
Major League Soccer is also bigger than ever, and many put its growth down to Beckham, who moved to LA Galaxy back in 2007. Beckham used his status to help create more awareness for the American soccer 15 years ago, and Pulisic is keen to drive it even further on the international stage.
