United States star Christian Pulisic has given his full approval to the potential hiring of Mauricio Pochettino as new USMNT coach, adding that the time is right for a change.

ESPN reported last week that Pochettino, a former coach of Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain ant Tottenham, has agreed to replace Gregg Berhalter, who was fired following the USMNT's group-stage exit from this summer's Copa América.

"I think it's good news," Pulisic told CBS before scoring in AC Milan's 2-1 loss to Parma on Saturday.
