NFL star Ja'Marr Chase and USMNT's Christian Pulisic exchange Cincinnati Bengals and AC Milan kits in Italy

NFL receiving triple crown winner Ja'Marr Chase met with USMNT and AC Milan star Christian Pulisic during his vacation in Italy, culminating in a jersey exchange that quickly went viral across social media. The Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver received a personalized red and black AC Milan jersey bearing Pulisic's name, while the American soccer star was gifted a custom Bengals jersey with Chase's name and number. The meeting was orchestrated ahead of AC Milan's Serie A match against Atalanta, which Chase attended at San Siro stadium.

Pulisic is having an excellent season for AC Milan, having contributed to 26 goals across all competitions. That tally includes nine goals and 10 assists in the Serie A alone, although the Rossoneri have struggled to get their season going this term. They currently sit in ninth place on the league table and are six points behind sixth-place AS Roma in the race for European football.

The Rossoneri endured a tough 1-0 loss to Atlanta at the San Siro on Sunday and remain in ninth place on the league table thanks to that loss. They face cross-city rivals Internazionale next in the second leg of their Coppa Italia semifinal and then go on the road to face Venezia in the league next.
