A response has been published by AC Milan to a story circulating regarding an argument involving Sergio Conceicao and Christian Pulisic.
In case you missed it, today’s edition of La Repubblica spoke of ‘extreme tension’ at Milan and a climate inside the Milan dressing room that is far from positive at the moment, given the Champions League elimination against Feyenoord.
The most surprising claim though involved Christian Pulisic, and the idea that he had a heated confrontation with the coach at half-time during the defeat to Dinamo Zagreb in the final game of the first phase in the UCL.
The paper alleged that the American winger had then gone to the directors and asked to be sold in the summer if they planned to keep the Portuguese coach, such was the level of his discontent.
It is not something we see very often at all, but on their X profile Milan have published a brief quote from Pulisic which responds to the story published this morning by La Repubblica.
“I have never argued with the Coach and I have never asked to leave. I am very happy at Milan and I want to continue wearing this shirt. Reading these lies is unacceptable, but let’s all continue to remain united and fight together on the pitch, for the Club and for our fans,” he said.
