The star forward of the US men’s national team, Christian Pulisic, may be sidelined for crucial upcoming matches with AC Milan. Pulisic, who scored the decisive goal in the recent derby against Inter Milan, could miss Saturday’s league fixture against Lazio.
Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri commented, “It’s unlikely that Pulisic will be available, but anything could happen in the next two days.” Recently, Pulisic returned from a hamstring injury sustained during a 2-1 friendly against Australia while representing the USMNT in October.
The 27-year-old midfielder has been a standout player for AC Milan this season, as the club aims for its first Serie A title since 2018. He has contributed seven goals and two assists across all competitions. Previously, Pulisic missed two matches for the USMNT in November due to his injury, where the team achieved victories against Uruguay and Paraguay. He is anticipated to play a significant role for USMNT coach Mauricio Pochettino in the upcoming 2026 World Cup.
This news is vital for soccer enthusiasts as Pulisic’s performance can significantly impact both AC Milan’s title chase and the USMNT’s World Cup aspirations. His health is crucial, not just for his club but for fostering hope and excitement leading into the international tournament.
