<p>The USMNT star has <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/top-50-player-best-serie-a-is-christian-pulisic-world-class-former-usmnt-team-mate-explains-standing-ac-milan-forward-global-elite/blt2642638be7d62acb" target="_blank">continued to catch the eye in Italy this season</a>, registering 10 goals and 11 assists.

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Milan, though, have been piecing together contract extension plans for some time. Pulisic is <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/contract-extension-already-ac-milan-activate-christian-pulisic-clause-usmnt-personal-bests-transfer-chelsea/bltf96b0ae689933917" target="_blank">currently tied to a deal at San Siro through to 2027</a>.
