Chelsea's new boy, Christian Pulisic, dreams of facing Tottenham in the Champions League next week.
The 20-year-old American international is expected to join Chelsea this summer, after the Blues reached a £ 57.6 million deal with Borussia Dortmund in January, with Pulisic remaining on loan with the Germans for the remainder of the season.
As such, he could end up facing one of the "big six" Premier League rivals Chelsea in the Champions League next Wednesday. Spurs is expected to welcome Dortmund to Wembley in the first leg of the last 16 games.
And Pulisic talked about what he expects of the tie and the Spurs, who are currently without the injured duo Harry Kane and Dele Alli.
"I think it will be a really aggressive game," he said, quoted by the Bundesliga website.
"Obviously they [Spurs] are a good team and so are we, so it's going to be a very good match. As for the Champions League, we are now in the playoffs, anything can happen from here.

"We have reached our goal of arriving here and now we will fight to win every game if we want to go as far as we can."
At the same time, Pulisic has expressed his wish to finish in style in Germany, while Dortmund has seven points ahead of the Bundesliga.
Dortmund have indeed left the DFB Cup midweek after losing to Werder Bremen on penalties. Pulisic got the cut net, which finished 3-3 after overtime.
But after the defeat, the 20-year-old said Dortmund needed to focus on the remaining two competitions. the league and the league of champions.
"We also wanted to win the cup," he said.
