Pulisic: ‘I’m very happy at Milan and want to continue here’

Pulisic: ‘I’m very happy at Milan and want to continue here’ Christian Pulisic assures he is ‘very happy at Milan and want to continue here’ while feeling ‘very positive’ about coach Ruben Amorim. There were reports of possible Premier League or MLS interest in the USMNT forward, who is finding his form after numerous injury problems in recent months. He finally scored his first competitive goal of 2026 in the 3-0 Serie A victory over Lecce, and spoke to reporters at a fan event today.

I didn’t realise quite how difficult it was until after I saw it back.” ITALY – SEPTEMBER 20: Christian Pulisic of AC Milan scores his team’s first goal during the Serie A match between AC Milan and US Lecce at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on September 20, 2026 in Italy.

Our most recent match was one of the best, so we want to build on that,” noted Pulisic. “He wants us to find certain positions, especially when we have the ball, and to make specific movements. Obviously, we are also given some freedom in attack, but there are principles and positions to keep to.” ITALY – SEPTEMBER 20: Ruben Amorim, Manager of AC Milan, interacts with Christian Pulisic of AC Milan as he is substituted off during the Serie A match between AC Milan and US Lecce at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on September 20, 2026 in Italy.

The club is giving me everything, it helps me a great deal. I am concentrated on playing, but we’ll talk about it, I hope soon,” said Pulisic. “I feel really happy at Milan and want to continue here.” Among his teammates in the Rossoneri squad this season are Goncalo Ramos and Luka Modric. “Playing with Ramos is fantastic, because he works so hard and helps the team defensively, he never stops running. I am not worried for him, the goals will come,” concluded Pulisic. “Modric sets the example for everyone with the way he controls the game. He is 41 years old, doing what he does, there is so much we can learn from a professional like him.”
