"Christian Pulisic has been decisive for AC Milan since arriving in 2023, but he is not going through the best patch of form at the moment. As Calciomercato.com recall, Milan's 24-game unbeaten run went up in smoke last night as they not only lost against Parma, but failed to score. Even fielding the first choice attacking duo of Rafael Leao and Pulisic for the fourth time this season (from minute one) wasn't enough."
"Since arriving, Pulisic has accustomed everyone to his goals, assists, technical prowess and leadership. However, while also battling iliopsoas bursitis, his last league goal dates back to December 28 when he netted the first against Verona in a 3-0 win. Two months without a goal for a forward like the former Chelsea man is surprising. What is more worrying is that Pulisic failed to convert two great goal-scoring opportunities on Sunday, in a performance akin to the draw away against Fiorentina."
"Putting him on trial would be unfair given how consistent Pulisic has been since joining, but it's fair to say that Allegri lacks the best version of Captain America, who needs to refocus his aim to the level he had at the start of the season. Pulisic has proven himself to be a top-level professional, but like all players, he can't remain indifferent to certain factors. The home World Cup with the USA, the rumours of Premier League interest (Liverpool very interested, per the report) and a precarious physical condition."
Christian Pulisic has been decisive for AC Milan since 2023 but currently is experiencing a notable dip in form. Milan's 24-game unbeaten run ended with a loss to Parma in which the team failed to score despite starting Rafael Leao and Pulisic together. Leao has been limited by an adductor problem while Pulisic contends with iliopsoas bursitis and a two-month goal drought since December 28. Pulisic missed two clear chances against Parma and matched an earlier underwhelming outing at Fiorentina. External factors include the upcoming home World Cup, reported Premier League interest, and uncertainty over a contract renewal. Physical and mental recovery is essential to finish the season strongly.
