Today’s Corriere dello Sport (via PianetaMilan) has dedicated an in-depth article to Christian Pulisic, a player whose absence seems to bring about a dip in how Milan do. His goal in Genoa gave the team their last win, and since then he has had an injury battle like several other squad members.
Pulisic – who carried out individual training yesterday at Milanello – skipped potential commitments with the USA national team to get back into shape for Milan-Fiorentina, which will take place in nine days.
With the Rossoneri decimated in attack due to the absences of Rafael Leão (muscle injury) and Olivier Giroud (suspended), it will be his turn to take Milan by the hand in the most delicate moment of their season.
His starting spot has never been in question. He immediately won the battle against Samuel Chukwueze to stat on the right in the 4-3-3 and so far this season he has scored four goals and provided two assists in 14 games.
Only twice in his career has he had a better performance, both times with Chelsea, but by going at this average he could also surpass those records and lead Milan out of a dark period in the process.
