Two United States internationals made their way to San Siro during the summer transfer window. Pulisic arrived in Italy from Premier League heavyweights Chelsea, while Musah completed a switch from La Liga side Valencia.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Both have settled quickly in new surroundings, with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/explained-qualities-made-christian-pulisic-impact-ac-milan-possible-legendary-boss-hails-usmnt-star/blt8886c75be7b06945" target="_blank">Pulisic registering four goals in Serie A</a>. Musah’s energy in the middle of the park has also earned plenty of admirers, with the talented 20-year-old midfielder <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/usmnt-yunus-musah-adjusting-ac-milan-faster-than-expected/bltcc2a1f5c29dab187" target="_blank">quickly becoming a fan favourite</a>.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Musah has told <a href="https://www.gazzetta.it/Calcio/Serie-A/Milan/10-10-2023/milan-musah-con-il-genoa-la-partita-piu-folle-che-abbia-mai-giocato.shtml " target="_blank">Gazzetta dello Sport</a> when asked how much of an impact having Pulisic alongside him has made in adjusting quickly to the demands of life in another country and division: “A lot, and not only on the pitch. Christian is a special player, with great quality and it’s truly a privilege to be able to have him in the same club team. We are also developing a special relationship off the pitch and this is an important thing.”

WHAT THEY SAID
