Christian Pulisic didn’t pass up on the chance to phone his former Chelsea and now current AC Milan team-mate Olivier Giroud after his move was made official.
In a video posted on Milan’s official TikTok account, Pulisic was shown video calling Giroud from Casa Milan just after the shots were taken ahead of his official announcement.
Pulisic: “Ohhhh, look who it is! I’m at Casa Milan.”
Giroud: “Lovely bro, nice to see you with that jersey.”
Pulisic: “Yes sir, I’ll see you tomorrow OK? Not tomorrow, you’re coming back later. Enjoy time with your family.”
Giroud: “Thank you bro, love you.”

there was something really awkward about that interaction lol
Its scripted and staged for marketing purposes. Nothing spontaneous about it.
i never said it was spontaneous just felt awkward
yea, it’s called a PR stunt… LOL!!! i’m sure they will mesh sooner or later.
Pulisic is also a very introvert person and this is an awkward PR video. Of course the whole thing becomes even more awkward lol. Hopefully it still works
