Amorim Pulisic
Christian Pulisic’s World Cup was difficult, with his minutes affected by injury. However, this has been the story of his 2026, as AC Milan know all too well.
It’s been a while since Pulisic was impactful for Milan. Unfortunately, he hasn’t scored a goal for the club since 2025 and injuries have taken the headlines more than performances in recent months, even with the national team.

However, he can turn that around quickly if he returns with some big performances, starting this weekend.
Pulisic returns with desire
As MilanNews writes, Pulisic will return to the Allianz Stadium with the aim of redeeming himself. Last season, he missed a penalty in Turin and after a 2026 without a goal for the Rossoneri, he aims to turn things around.
An unused substitute in both games this season, the American could be given his first minutes against Juventus, likely as a substitute. Ruben Amorim has maintained the idea that he wants to manage his minutes for now and this will continue.

He’s one of the ‘most important’ players for Amorim, so he doesn’t want to risk him for the long-term by rushing him back. Nevertheless, this weekend’s game offers him a chance to return as a protagonist – a role which he’s not held for the Diavolo for far too long.
