Christian Pulisic had admirers in the Premier League and is keen to know AC Milan’s plans for the future, a journalist has claimed.
For Pulisic, the numbers do the talking. The American has 23 goals and 17 assists since the start of last season, making him the second player in Serie A to have scored more than 15 goals and provided at least as many assists. The other is Rafael Leao.

If you exclude genuine forwards (first or second strikers) Pulisic is the first Milan player to score more than 10 goals in each of his first two Serie A seasons with the Rossoneri since the days of Luciano Chiarugi (1972-73 and 1973-74), with 12 goals last season and 11 in this.
Pulisic attracts interest
Orazio Accomando of DAZN is reporting that Pulisic is ‘among the most appreciated Milan players in Europe’, in terms of clubs that are looking at him as a potential target for the upcoming summer window.
The American is ‘happy at Milan’ and has a contract until 2027 with an option for the following year, but wants to know what the club’s plans for next season are given there will almost certainly be no Champions League football.
After the reports about Tijjani Reijnders being on Manchester City’s radar, the journalist adds that Pulisic is ‘especially popular in the Premier League’, where he has of course played before with Chelsea.
Several sources have reported that Pulisic is set to put pen to paper on a one-year extension with Milan, earning a pay rise as recognition for his excellent performances.
If we can get 60ml we can sell him
and who are you getting for 60 million? Or what combination of players are you getting? You trust this management to fill that void? You’re nuts.
We who?? Just sell the club
Seems to be hyperbole. He didn’t learn Italian to just jump in 2 seasons imo. His versatility adds exceptional value. He can play RW LW CAM. I even think he might be good in second striker role. Play closer to goal and more room to roam side to side.
I think there are two things to consider. 1. Does management make the team stronge 2. Style of play. I don’t think he likes how he is being used now. He really isn’t being used as an attacker- more as a defender and as a midfielder as he drops back regularly. The fact that he has not signed the extension after all this reporting that he is near should be a concern. He has been near to signing for 2 months.
I think if we fail to win this Wednesdaywe may see Reijnders sold to the Premier League. If this happens, as much as Puli loves Milan I don’t think he’ll stay on a team with no European football next year and a management group who’s effectively giving up by selling top players in their prime.
I mean we’re now only 4 points out of 4th. Lazio plays Inter. If Juve drops points to Udinese and we beat Roma, we can start to dream… Crazy as it is
We’re so close, going to hurt if we don’t make it.
not really. if it happens, it would be a miracle. if it doesnt, it’s our own fault. dropped too many points
