It looks like the United States men’s national team star forward Christian Pulisic found his home with Seria A side AC Milan. According to reports from Italian media, Pulisic and Milan are currently engaged in negotiations about a new contract.
After an up-and-down stint with Premier League’s Chelsea, Pulisic opted to sign with Milan in 2023 and quickly established himself as one of the club’s key players. That has been particularly the case in the 2024-25 campaign, with Pulisic contributing 15 goals and nine assists in all competitions so far. With this, he became the first player since legendary Zlatan Ibrahimovic to score 15 goals for Milan in each of his first two seasons with the club.
Pulisic has two years left on his deal after this season, but AC Milan reportedly wants to move quickly in order to secure the American’s services for the foreseeable future. It is believed that Pulisic is also very interested in renewing his commitment to the club, having settled in Italy better than expected.
Despite Pulisic’s impressive performances this season, AC Milan is enduring a rough campaign. They failed to make a run in the UEFA Champions League, being eliminated in the Knockout phase play-offs by Dutch side Feyenoord. Additionally, their form in the Seria A has been largely inconsistent as they are currently sitting in ninth place and in danger of missing out on European competitions next season.
The highlight of Milan’s 2024-25 season has been the Supercoppa Italiana trophy, which they won by beating their bitter cross-town rivals Inter Milan.
