GOAL reviews the major takeaways from Americans playing in Europe, including McKennie continuing his dominant form.

USMNT star Matko Miljevic has confirmed that Inter Miami have expressed interest in his services, with a transfer that would see him link up with Lionel Messi in South Florida being mooted. The attacking midfielder is keeping his options open for now, with the current Huracan star admitting that he would like to remain in Argentina as Racing Club sound him out.

Weston McKennie has reacted to Jonathan David’s Panenka penalty woe at Juventus, with the USMNT star also discussing his new role in the Bianconeri’s plans. The Turin-based giants endured a frustrating outing against Lecce at the start of 2026, as they were held to a 1-1 draw, with Canada international forward David fluffing his lines from the spot.

From Christian Pulisic’s individual success to the USMNT exiting the World Cup earlier than hoped, GOAL outlines its predictions for American soccer in 2026.

AC Milan have been warned that ‘Captain America’ Christian Pulisic “can’t always save” them, with the Rossoneri becoming “too dependent” on their USMNT star.

He is not convinced that Pulisic can deliver Serie A title glory with Golden Boot-winning exploits.

AC Milan have reportedly set a date for further contract talks with USMNT star Christian Pulisic. The American forward, who has become a talismanic figure at San Siro, has delayed committing his future to the Serie A giants. They are, however, in title contention this season and remain confident that the 27-year-old can be persuaded to extend his association with the club.
