AC Milan are planning to sit down and discuss a new deal with Christian Pulisic, but there is nothing scheduled in at present.
Pulisic arrived in Milan in the summer of 2023 from Chelsea and he has become the most decisive player in the league, at least as per La Gazzetta dello Sport’s recent report. He already has eight goal contributions in seven games this season, including what ended up being the winner against Napoli.

There was talk back in June that a contract extension was imminent for the USA international, but then it became clear that things had been put on hold by the player’s side, given he wanted guarantees over the ambition of the project.
Pulisic renewal update
Matteo Moretto gave an update on Fabrizio Romano’s YouTube channel in which he spoke about Pulisic’s situation and the growing urgency to agree a new long-term contract.
“Pulisic’s contract expires in 2027, but Milan have the option to extend it until 2028. However, in the Rossoneri’s mind, the contract expires in 2028. The parties had reached a basic agreement in February regarding an extension with adjustments, but no signatures were reached.
“At the time, we were talking about a contract until 2028 plus one year, with a salary of up to €5m. At a certain point, for reasons of sporting guarantees, the boy decided to take his time. There is certainly a desire to discuss it again.
“As of today, since the contract expires in 2028, it is not among the immediate priorities at this time, in the sense that there is no fixed date, but the parties certainly want to discuss it again because the player deserves this kind of reward.”
Can you imagine if Milan do not lock him down?
He is, and has been, in spite of some people not wanting to admit, the most important Milan player since he arrived. More important than Leao two years, ago, more important than Reijnders, last season, and without a doubt the most important so far this year.
Just stop and think: Milan scored five goals over the past two matches, during which time CP11 has three goals and two assists; yes, he contributed to all five.
I agree and 5m really isn’t enough. He needs to be a top earner. Leao I think makes 7 mil? So at least 6 mil should be what they offer. Mike, Rafa, and Puli should be the top earners (of course Modric and Rabiot now too). They should all be around 6-7 mil each.
Agree. The most underrated player, yet one of the most consistent and hard working players. A player with no-drama and no-BS, compared with Leao.
can you imagine if you dont b*tch and moan for one day in your miserable life?
“…lock him down? ”
Can you imagine Free Pulisic — lol, the same narrative by some milan trolls. not too long ago remember?
This owners only think about money,so im 100% sure he will be sell on summer
If that were true then we would have bought nobody during this summer.
You people hate on the owner irrationally.
Pulisic will be renewed because he’s American and is good for business and the Club’s public image in America.
It was an underrated act of leadership when Puli refused to sign at the beginning of the summer. He said, “Let me wait a minute, and see how ambitious you are with this club.”
That’s the one time a player has real leverage with the ownership — when they want him to sign an extension. And he used it.
We’ll never know how much of a difference it made, but it certainly didn’t hurt, as they went out and got: Tare, Allegri, Jashari, Ricci, Modric, Nkunku, Rabiot, etc.
Now, we can finally say, this is a serious Milan project. Worth signing on for.
