U.S. head coach Gregg Berhalter is excited to work with Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic again.

The winger is back in the USMNT fold since November 2019, and will be hoping to help his country with their World Cup Qualifying campaign.

Pulisic has not been enjoying the best of spells with his club in England, but Berhalter has no doubts regarding the player's talent.

While Pulisic was once seen as the new shining hope for his nation, he is now joined by the likes of Sergino Dest, Weston McKennie and Gio Reyna as young stars making their mark in big European leagues.

"I think this will be a great opportunity for him to get together with his friends and get to see the group," Berhalter told reporters.

"I remember when I played for the national team coming back and joining up with the team and seeing all your buddies again and then getting on the field and being able to compete with them, that was the best part of it.

"So I'm sure he's excited about it and it will be great to have him in camp and great to have him on the field."
