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.
