United States winger Christian Pulisic says the "sky is the limit" for Borussia Dortmund team-mate Jadon Sancho, praising his decision to move to Germany.
Sancho, who left Manchester City in search of improved first-team football in 2017, has registered five goals and eight assists for Dortmund this season, helping them to the top of the Bundesliga.
The 18-year-old is set to make his first England start against the USA at Wembley on Thursday, live on Sky Sports Main Event, lining up against club-mate Pulisic.
Pulisic, speaking to Sky Sports News, said: "The sky is the limit for a guy like that, he's got so much talent and he's a great young player.
"We've talked about playing against each other possibly - it would be a lot of fun because obviously we are in training and competing every day and it's cool to see a guy like that."
Asked about Sancho's decision to move to Germany, he continued: "Sometimes you have to take a risk if you want great things to happen.
"I had to do the same thing moving to Germany. I'm really happy for him that things are working out and just want him to continue to push and continue to get better."
