Serie A’s official account confirmed the news and also added that card is now available in the Ultimate Team mode of EA SPORTS FC™ 24. The winger will get a trophy, which will be awarded before the game against Roma.
Pulisic was the most voted for by the fans, beating the likes of Luca Gatti (Juventus), Albert Guðmundsson (Genoa), Romelu Lukaku (Roma), Marcus Thuram (Inter) and Joshua Zirkzee (Bologna).
The six players were initially chosen by Stats Perform, starting from the tracking data recorded with the Hawk-Eye system, which considers statistical data and technical events but also positional data.
On a pure statistical level, Pulisic had two goals and two assists in five league games during the month of December, including the winner against Sassuolo in the last game of the year.
Lega Serie A CEO Luigi De Siervo: “The impact of the captain of the USA national team, Christian Pulisic, on the Italian league was immediately on par with his talent.
“Never banal plays combined with concreteness, personality, vision of the game and spirit of sacrifice have made him fundamental in Milan’s tactical chessboard which, also thanks to the two goals and two assists scored in the month of December by the American playmaker, remains permanently in the zone Champions of the ranking.”
