Christian Pulisic is yet to play a single minute for AC Milan so far this season, but he wants to convince Ruben Amorim this week.
After starting the season with wins over Torino and Venezia, Milan will be back in Turin on Sunday night for a big early-season test against Juventus. Luciano Spalletti’s side have also won both games (versus Frosinone and Parma) and are yet to concede a goal.

Desire for revenge
As reported by Corriere dello Sport (via MilanPress), all eyes will be on Pulisic progress at Milanello when the team get back in training. The American will be tested throughout the week and wants to finally make his official debut this season.
The American is desperate to play also for a personal reason. Last season in the away game against Juventus, he missed the penalty that could have broken the deadlock. Will the Serie A goal drought (still ongoing since December 2025) end at that very stadium?

Then, we must see what choices Amorim makes from a selection point of view, given that he has so far preferred Alphadjo Cisse and Ruben Loftus-Cheek as the starting attacking midfielders. Eventually, one feels, Pulisic will make the spot his own.
However, there will be plenty of competition in that area, given Adrien Rabiot has been used further forward, Omari Hutchinson is arriving, while Alexis Saelemaekers, Samuel Chukwueze and Diego Moreira can operate behind the striker too.
