USMNT star Yunus Musah sends 'don't waste this opportunity' message alongside Christian Pulisic at AC Milan

Two ambitious United States internationals moved to San Siro in the summer of 2023. They enjoyed productive debut campaigns in Italy, with ‘Captain America’ Pulisic becoming a talismanic presence for the Rossoneri, but ended the season empty-handed.

Musah and Pulisic are back in the trophy hunt for 2025, with Milan making their way to the Supercoppa Italiana final in Saudi Arabia. Ahead of a clash with arch-rivals Inter on Monday, Musah has told Milan TV: "The squad has a great desire to play in a final and win a trophy. We’ve worked a lot. That’s the message: We’ve worked a lot. We don’t want to waste this opportunity."

A lack of consistency has been an issue for AC Milan this season, leaving them eighth in the Serie A table, but Musah added on the collective desire to be successful that exists in Sergio Conceicao’s squad: "We’re very united. Obviously, in the last few weeks things haven’t gone amazingly well but the present is now. We had this chance, we took it and made the most of it. Now we’re focused on trying to win the title on Monday."

Milan saw off Juventus 2-1 in their Supercoppa semi-final, with Pulisic scoring from the penalty spot in that contest, and are looking to land just a third major honour since 2011. Their efforts against Inter are set to be followed closely from Rhode Island to Riyadh.
