Christian Pulisic has found a home at AC Milan, and the club’s management wants to keep it that way. After months of negotiations, he’s on the verge of signing a deal that could tie him to the Rossoneri until 2029. According to journalist Nicolo Schira, the terms would see Pulisic earning nearly $5.5 million per season, a figure that reflects both his on-field influence and the strong support he’s received from teammates and fans.
He has been a driving force since his arrival from Chelsea in 2023. Whether starting or coming off the bench, the U.S. international has a knack for changing the game. The numbers are hard to argue otherwise. As of February 2025, he has recorded 27 goals and 20 assists in 80 appearances across all competitions. Last Sunday, he into the Empoli game as a substitute and provided two crucial assists for the victory.
Pulisic’s ongoing rise at San Siro
Santiago Giménez, who joined from Feyenoord, has become one of the players benefiting most from Pulisic’s creative spark. “You can see the quality,” Pulisic said of his new teammate. In their first match together, Pulisic served up a decisive pass for Giménez’s goal, helping to seal a much-needed Serie A win. The partnership has ignited enthusiasm around Milan, with fans envisioning a lethal forward line that blends pace and precision.
Off the field, the bond between Pulisic and Milan seems to be strengthening every week. Supporters praise his energy and professionalism, while club officials see him as the kind of cornerstone required for title aspirations. Some even compare his importance to that of Rafael Leao, another top talent whose presence has transformed Milan’s attack.
Head coach Sergio Conceição recognizes the high stakes. Looking ahead to the upcoming Champions League clash with Feyenoord, he called it “a special game for everyone,” emphasizing the need for “the right attitude” to advance. Pulisic is expected to play a significant part in that plan, likely lining up alongside Giménez and Joao Félix to form a fearsome attacking trio.
Beyond Europe, Pulisic’s potential to lead the U.S. Men’s National Team at the 2026 World Cup fuels his growing legend. Former defender Alexi Lalas believes a strong performance on home soil could confirm Pulisic’s status as the greatest U.S. men’s player ever. For now, he’s focused on Milan, where a new deal, a supportive fan base, and a bright tactical setup all point toward a prosperous future.
If the final signatures arrive soon, Pulisic will remain a central figure at San Siro well into his prime. It’s a scenario both he and AC Milan seem determined to make a reality.
