"Christian Pulisic is on pace for the best season of his career -- in a season that will conclude with a home World Cup for the United States. The American standout scored the opening goal for AC Milan in a 3-0 victory over Hellas Verona in Serie A on Sunday to raise his total to 10 goals and two assists in 15 matches across all competitions with the Rossoneri."
"In all, Pulisic has been involved in 50 scores (31 goals and 19 assists) since joining Milan for the 2023-24 season. Over the same span, only Lautaro Martínez of rival Inter has been involved in more at 53. The U.S. team will be counting on that type of production from Pulisic before its home fans for the June 11-July 19 World Cup, which will also be co-hosted by Canada and Mexico."
"Meanwhile, Rasmus Højlund scored a brace in Napoli's victory -- already boosting his output beyond what he produced at Manchester United last season. Hojlund now has six goals in 12 Serie A appearances for Napoli -- compared to four in 32 Premier League matches last season. Both of Hojlund's goals came from the middle of the area. Napoli beat Bologna for the Italian Super Cup title on Monday in Saudi Arabia."
