USMNT star Christian Pulisic delivered another outstanding performance for AC Milan, this time against Napoli as he assisted the Rossoneri's opener and then doubled the team's lead within 31 minutes. The American winger's goal and assist continued his exceptional start to the campaign that has seen him contribute eight goal involvements in his first six Serie A matches.

Former U.S. international Herculez Gomez says Ricardo Pepi's availability and fitness could be the deciding factors in whether the PSV Eindhoven striker secures the starting No. 9 role for the USMNT at the 2026 World Cup.

USMNT midfielder Yunus Musah hopes his recent move to Atalanta will help him secure a spot in the U.S. squad for the 2026 World Cup. The 23-year-old, who joined the Italian side on loan from AC Milan this summer, is focused on establishing himself with his new club. He played 14 minutes in a draw against Weston McKennie's Juventus on Saturday.
