Christian Pulisic on his nickname
In the interview Pulisic referenced his nicknames as ones that, “Am not sure I like any of those. I’m pretty much used to Captain America at this point. It’s funny because there are also other Captain America’s to me, so that’s fine.”
Pulisic laughed when he read that some of his other lesser-known nicknames are: Puli-God, The Hersey Hare, The Hersey Hammer, and the Pennsylvania Pele.
Captain America has been a nickname used in the past by Landon Donovan, Clint Dempsey, and originally started being used by Claudio Reyna.
