No stopping Christian Pulisic! USMNT star posts career first in AC Milan win as American forward registers another assist

The United States international has enjoyed a new lease of life since severing ties with Premier League giants Chelsea in the summer transfer window. He has settled quickly at San Siro, becoming a key part of Milan’s plans in the process.

He opened the 2023-24 campaign in style, scoring in back-to-back Serie A outings, and has hit another purple patch of late. Pulisic helped Milan to a 3-0 victory over Monza in their latest fixture, with Tijjani Reijnders teed up for the opening goal of Sunday's contest.

Pulisic also registered an assist during Milan’s 3-2 defeat against Atlanta on December 9, while finding the target himself in a domestic meeting with Frosinone and a Champions League win over Newcastle. Per Opta, the 25-year-old forward has made a goal contribution in four successive games for the very first time.

Milan, who saw Pulisic’s effort against Newcastle earn them the consolation prize of a place in the Europa League after slipping out of elite continental competition, will be hoping to see their American star continue to shine through to the end of the calendar year – with two more fixtures to come in 2023.
