Christian Pulisic’s renewal at Milan on stand-by

According to the report from Daniele Longo on Calciomercato, the contract renewal for Christian Pulisic at Milan is currently on stand-by, largely because the player is waiting for clarity on the club’s future.

Pulisic’s current contract expires in 2027, and although he has quickly become a technical and charismatic leader for the team, the process of extending his deal is paused. The report states that this period of waiting dates back to the previous spring, when Milan had a contract ready but Pulisic delayed signing.

The American is not in a hurry, but he is waiting for a decision that satisfies his ambition. Pulisic was reportedly disappointed by the club’s management of the previous season and wanted to know the name of the new coach and the club’s program.

While the arrival of Massimiliano Allegri satisfied the request for a winning coach, Pulisic now wants a guarantee of returning to the top tier of European football, specifically the Champions League.

Despite this hold-up, the Milan management remains calm about the situation. They have total faith in Pulisic’s commitment, and the primary objective remains rewarding the U.S. captain with a significant salary increase from €4.4 million to €5.5 million net per season. The club is prepared to unilaterally exercise a clause in his current contract at the end of the season if the situation persists, but an immediate agreement is the preferred outcome.
