Everything is done with Christian Pulisic’s renewal barring a signature (sound familiar?), and AC Milan are left waiting at present.
In the past two seasons, Christian Pulisic has been the main guy for Milan, providing on so many occasions when others haven’t. So, talks of a renewal were not unexpected. With everything going quite well, there was confidence about the situation.

However, this has been put on hold.
According to Matteo Moretto, despite everything being agreed and only a signature required, Pulisic has paused the discussions and renewal process. Largely because he wants to understand the direction of the club and the plans for the future.
Moretto, in his tweet, cites the American’s desire for clarification on the sporting director situation, as well as who will be the next head, before he agrees to commit his future to the club.
Considering a number of big clubs are sniffing around his situation, any signs of discontent could be pounced upon, especially if he eventually decides against a renewal.
In turn, you would imagine that this would lessen his value, considering everything has been agreed. Whether he would push for an exit is another thing entirely if he didn’t agree with the project. However, it makes the club more vulnerable in a summer where they could be stripped.
Can’t even blame him what a waste of a season
I would too, go find a team that wants you. when literally no coach has ever wanted him.
Teamates are always backstabbing at every oppurtunity.
Media hate him cause his american.
-Tuchel didnt want him at bvb, it was klopp that gave him a start.
-Sarri didnt want him at chelsea, sarri said he never heard his name before.
-Pioli didnt want pulisic he wanted chuck.
Don’t be an hypocrite even fan on here who now praising didn’t receive him well because he’s American. Italian media opinion has changed because of his work rate and professionalism
Smart man. Can’t blame him at all. Finite career. Need to plan ahead.
He totally deserve that the club owe him that much. I don’t think anyone would be upset if he leaves.
The club is paying him. That’s what players get to play. Money. So the club doesn’t “owe” him anything. I’m not disputing wanting to be a part of a project that has a clear goal, if he wants to challenge for trophies then he can certainly force a move by not extending or even request a transfer, but let’s also not use unwarranted hyperbole. It adds nothing to the conversation.
no one care about him. he just decent player
Thanks for proving that just watching football doesn’t make you intelligent.
its just fact. no hate.
^ troll alert
Can’t blame him, we’re a mediocre club and he deserves better.
And it’s safe to say that if Pulišić is feeling this way, then almost every other players (minus a few I guess) also agree with him, ESPECIALLY those players who were brought during an older project who found themselves being managed by men who can’t manage.
The difference between Pulišić and most of our stars, is that he was professional enough to give everything on the pitch, while the others played in a “sulking” mode.

Truth is always in the middle.
Can our players be more motivated and perform better? Yes.
Is it hard to perform when the whole organization is in disarray? Also yes.
Did Sergio fail to bring the most out of them with his methods? Again, yes.
But everyone needs to take responsibility for their shortcomings this season.
I’d love to hear Sergio’s interview after he leaves.
Oh can’t wait, there will be so much tea the British will want to tax it.
This. I don’t know what excuses two “stars” standing on the opposite side of the pitch when the coach is giving a team talk during a water break because they didn’t start the match. It does absolutely zero to improve the situation, and when it’s that early in the season and there is still much to play for, management can’t be to blame. There is plenty of time to make your opinion of the club know in the summer when you can hand in a transfer request.
Ted as usual shows the understanding of a 5 year old.
The difference is Pulisic didn’t pout during the season. Didn’t disobey or disrespect the coach even if he didn’t like him. Always gave his full effort and conducted himself as a professional.
If you are not happy with club or where the club is heading then don’t resign, but you behave like a professional on the pitch when they are paying you millions to do a job.
Can you see the difference???
It shouldn’t be that difficult to understand.
It shouldn’t be but for some it’s still impossible. You could try to bang it in his head with a sledgehammer but you’d still fail.
You lot are hilarious getting triggered by such a cheap low effort shot. Purpose achieved.
And that sledgehammer to the head? Yikes, sound like a childhood repressed memory.
Here we go. That’s how low we are. Ambitious players don’t wanna join this sinking ship, no matter the amount of money thrown at them. Crapbird era. Can’t blame puli, theo or any other big name.
Pulisic has exceeded expectations for Milan but will never get the recognition he deserves (American,too small, injury prone). All he needs is a chance to prove himself now at a club (I’m sorry) that’s better than Milan is now. I’m sure he’d love to stay,but the club’s management is unreliable. He must control his own destiny because no one will give him the benefit of the doubt like Chelsea did with Timo Werner,starting him when he clearly was the lesser player.
I’d love to hear Frank Lampard’s comments on Puli’s development. In his interim role, my sense is that he was told to keep Christian on the bench. When I see Puli crash the net hard on a run, I think of Lampard and am guessing it was a regular conversation between two players with a high degree of similarity. Sarri? Unfair to criticize. Tuchel? Treated Puli badly and probably knows it – I had to chuckle at the Timo comment.
After the way Chelsea/Chelsea coaches treated him I really want him to stay at Milan. As an American in this sport he’s always going to have to prove himself but Milan gave him that chance when there weren’t any big name teams trying to sign him(again I blame chelsea). He’s proven himself and in a perfect world they get a great coach and sporting director and fight for the Scudetto next year. Can’t blame him for waiting to see if management actually does that and he’s probably waiting to see which players they hold on to.
goodbye maignan pulisic leao theo thiaw or tomori or pavlovic reijnders
welcome more mid to useless players
welcome back origi
Man run at leave this team. They will ruin tge rest of your career.
Bros, he just wants to see who the new manager is going to be and their plan for him. If they pick a manager that doesn’t fit his play style then it’s good for both him and the team not to extend. If the new DT favors him then he’ll stay. I think missing UCL plays a small role but he’s been giving a lot from Milan and I don’t think he’ll flee because the team is starting a new project. Pulisic knows finding a football home is difficult and he’s found it in Milan.
I know he’d love to stay, but at this time there’s a sickness at Milan and no unity. I think he understands he’s not built to carry a team in Italy. He’s made to be a solid part of something greater than himself.
Especially if (when) Tijj is sold… Who’s there to help carry the team next season? Musah? 😀 No one can blame Pulisic if he decides to leave. It would be sad and devastating but completely understandable too.
Maybe there is another factor looming that may cause him to stay and not playing extra games in UCL may actually be a good thing for him. World Cup on home soil. Less games in the year leading up to the WC that means a lot to him. We can hope that will let CP focus on the league and help us regain our place in Europe and put less minutes on his body. Just a thought.
