Christian Pulisic's words about Rafael Leao and his current level

Christian Pulisic is one of the players who has had the best performance at the start of the season. The AC Milan footballer has positioned himself as a star reinforcement, after certainly arriving amidst some criticism from the fans. This is mainly because he did not leave Chelsea FC in the best way, where he lost the coach's trust and still suffered a couple of injuries that kept him from the best level of all.

Now, the player is close to experiencing his first Derby della Madoninna, where the player hopes to place himself in an important way and be one of the leaders to win this match. The player would be a starter in Pioli's scheme and prior to the match he spoke a lot about what he has experienced in such a short time with the Milan team, mainly, his relationship with his teammates. The American player seems to have found a place where he enjoys his soccer.

“My relationship with Milan was love at first sight, especially when I saw the fans. I had never found a passion like this. I have played in some of the best stadiums in the world, but San Siro is one of the most impressive. I also remember the atmosphere when we arrived at the stadium as a rival, with Chelsea. It was incredible,” said the footballer in statements to the Italian newspaper, La Gazzetta dello Sport.

The captain of the United States National Team also had praise for his teammates, mainly for Rafael Leao, who according to Christian Pulisic, is already one of the best in the world. “Rafa (Leao) is one of the best players in the world, in that band with him and Theo we are very strong. I have a lot of fun playing with them. Giroud impresses me because he always scores, he is always in the right position. On the field we get along very well. And he is also a fantastic person,” confessed the AC Milan midfielder prior to the derby against the legendary Rossoneri rival, Inter Milan.
